Description
Although similar integrative tools exist (Supplementary Note 2), no other open platform shares all KBase’s features, which include the following:(i) comprehensive support for data provenance and analysis reproducibility;(ii) a flexible system for sharing data and workflows;(iii) an integrated database of genomes and biochemistry;(iv) a point-and-click interface that enables users to build, store, run, and share complex scientific analyses of fully integrated data;(v) built-in support for the use of custom code interleaved with point-and-click apps; and (vi) a software development kit that enables external developers to add applications to KBase (Supplementary Table 1). KBase has a suite of scientific applications that enables users to build and share sophisticated workflows. For example, a user can predict species interactions from metagenomic data by assembling raw reads, binning assembled contigs by species …
