Welcome to OpenCB

OpenCB provides advanced open-source software for the analysis of high-throughput genomic data. During the last years advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies are producing data at an unprecedented scale and bioinformatics encounter difficulties in storage and analysis of vast amounts of biological data. Biology has joined big data era and faces new challenges such as the storage, analysis, search, sharing and visualization of data that require new solutions.

 

OpenCB is organized in four different subprojects according to which problem they try to solve, this organization also helps to the development of the software as each of these subprojects share the same programming language and computing technologies that allow to get the best performance in each of them.
