Experiment Design & Management

Your experiment series is just that – yours. Whether its NGS data, third party data sets, published research data, or your organization’s private data, Foundry enables the simple and rapid integration of the data necessary to support your analytics. And of course Foundry manages the accumulation of data and insights – building a continuously expanding results set for analysis.

MetaData

Enhance your experiment with Foundry’s customizable metadata capabilities. Powered by an intuitive drag and drop interface, and our controlled vocabulary and ontology engine, opening new data dimensions for modeling and analytics has never been easier.

Workflows & Pipelines

Create customized bioinformatics workflows and pipelines with unmatched speed and without writing single line of code. Alternatively, simply select the appropriate pipeline from Foundry’s library of verified and ready to go workflows.

Import

Ingest NGS data, published research data or your own private data into Foundry with unmatched ease.

Fully automate your data import and processing functions so you only need focus on results.

Seamlessly mange any number of samples from a single sample to tens of thousands of samples and beyond.

Orchestration

Dev-Ops and operational complexities eliminated:

  • Continuous integration, testing, and
    automated Docker container building.
  • Direct integration with leading code
    repositories.
  • Deploy and manage any number of
    pipelines across any computing
    environment.
  • Instantly duplicate any run, from any
    point in time, with parameter and pipeline
    settings intact.

Analyze

Interrogate experiment results on your terms:

  • Launch RStudio, Jupyter notebook and
    Shiny apps with relevant data mounted
    and ready to go.
  • Use our native visualization tools for QC,
    differential expression, and for other
    interrogation tasks.
  • Share results using FAIR standards and
    simplify compliance with the NIH’s Data
    Management Plan mandate.
  • Quickly change parameters and re-run
    to expand your results set.
