While implementing and scaling data analysis pipelines at a biotech startup, I spent most of my time getting new tools running efficiently and scaling them. Implementing something like Kraken2 for genomic analysis (<a href="https://github.com/DerrickWood/kraken2" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/DerrickWood/kraken2</a>) on our infrastructure took weeks and was hard to scale. I expected a library for running these tools on managed infrastructure via an API to exist – like Twilio for sending text messages or Stripe for processing payments – but I couldn't find any.<p>Toolchest is an API for running data analysis tools easily (i.e. copy and paste a few lines of code), without managing the infrastructure. We're starting with computational genomics tools, but tools in other spaces can be added. Please drop me a message if you have a use case in mind! For example, I've thought about making hashcat powered by Tesla V100 GPUs accessible via our API.<p>All feedback is welcome!
