The last mile: applications configuration¶

By default, Laniakea is configured to run the following applications:

Galaxy live build¶

Description:

The Galaxy live build allows to setup and launch a virtual machine configured with the Operative System CentOS 7 and the auxiliary applications needed to support a Galaxy production environment such as PostgreSQL, Nginx, uWSGI and Proftpd and to deploy the Galaxy platform itself and the tools that come with the selected flavour.

This application can be deployed with cluster support, using SLURM as Resource Manager and with automatica elasticity support, with CLUES as elasticity manager.

Recommended images:

CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud-1907.qcow2

Configuration:

Galaxy live build configuration

Galaxy express¶

Description:

The Galaxy express instantiate a CentOS 7 Virtual Machine with Galaxy, all its companion software and the set of tools that come with the selected flavour. Once deployed each Galaxy instance can be further customized with additional tools and reference data.

This application can be deployed with cluster support, using SLURM as Resource Manager.

The default available flavours currently are:

galaxy-minimal: Galaxy production-grade server (Galaxy, PostgreSQL, NGINX, proFTPd, uWSGI).
galaxy-CoVaCS: workflow for genotyping and variant annotation of whole genome/exome and target-gene sequencing data (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29402227).
galaxy-GDC_Somatic_Variant: port of the Genomic Data Commons (GDC) pipeline for the identification of somatic variants on whole exome/genome sequencing data (https://gdc.cancer.gov/node/246).
galaxy-rna-workbench: more than 50 tools for RNA centric analysis (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28582575).
galaxy-epigen: based on Epigen project (http://www.epigen.it/).
