Introduction
Galaxy is an open source, web-based platform for data intensive biomedical research. It is a scientific workflow, data integration, and data and analysis persistence and publishing platform that aims to make computational biology accessible to research scientists that do not have computer programming or systems administration experience. Although it was initially developed for genomics research, it is largely domain agnostic and is now used as a general bioinformatics workflow management system.
Galaxy on Cedar
On cedar we provide one galaxy instance for every research group. Galaxy installation requires a special setup that needs to be done by Compute Canada (CC) staff. If you need Galaxy for your group please write an email to support team.
Galaxy Directory Structure
Galaxy is usually installed on the project directory of the group and it contains several sub-directories. The name of the Galaxy top directory is determined by taking the first two character of PI username + "glyx". For example is PI username is "davidc" the galaxy top directory will "daglxy" and it is located in /project/group name/. Where group name is the group name of PI, eg, def-davidc.
