Welcome to MOLGENIS Computational Framework (MCF)

What is MCF ?

MOLGENIS Computational Framework is a framework for bioinformatics which enables data and computational workflow management in a distributed computational environment. The system was developed as a part of Netherlands Bioinformatics for Proteomics Platform.

Why MFC ?

High-throughput bioinformatics research is complex and requires the combination of multiple experimental approaches each producing large amounts of diverse data. The analysis and evaluation of these data are equally complex requiring specific integrations of various software components into complex workflows.

We provide functionality for bioinformaticians to specify the workflow of commands with simple interfaces, while at the same time scale up to hundreds of jobs to get the terabytes of genetic data processed by recent methods.

How does it work?

Our data management is built on Molgenis. The system can support several back-ends. We propose to the default MCF back-end built on the GridGain, which can be replaced by another cloud or grid computational infrastructure. The MCF can be used as the complete product, or the parts of MCF can be re-used separately.

Who is behind MCF ?

MCF is created in the Genomics Coordination Center team.
