  • Galaxy vs. pipeline-pilot

    Hi,
    We are considering two alternatives for managing and running our pipelines: Galaxy and pipeline-pilot. I know they are not exactly equivalent (e.g. PP is more flexible for pipelines design and Galaxy is stronger with portal interface). We mainly analyze NGS data of all kinds and maybe will expend in the future to other bioinformatics fields (e.g. Proteomics). The users will be bioinformaticians and computer oriented biologists.
    Did anyone have this dilema ?
    Thanks in advance

    I assume that you have access to necessary budgets since you are considering purchase of pipeline-pilot against galaxy.

    - What sort of informatics support (both in terms of systems administration and programming) do you have access to?
    - Will your systems administrators be willing to tinker with galaxy to make it work in your local IT environment (depending on type of cluster/job queuing system)?
    - Is having access to technical support a requirement?
    - Do you have projects that require long term support for specific versions of software/workflows?

      GenoMax - Thanks a lot for your fast reply.
      I have the budget for PP. Regarding your questions:
      1. I have an IT manager with HPC cluster and storage. I also have software engineers and Bioinformaticians.
      2. My IT manager will help us as much as we need with Galaxy.
      3. I prefer get the technical support from a company, eventhough my guys can solve the problems with Galaxy.
      4. Many of my projects requires long term support (e.g. looking again at the data after a year or two)

      Bottom line - I have the technical guys that can support Galaxy (but can do other useful things with their time...). The reason I'm considering Galaxy is that I'm wondering if it can give me more functionality than pipeline pilot because of the large gained experience of the communitte or other reasons.
      Thanks

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
