Galaxy is an open-source platform for FAIR data analysis that enables users to:

  • use tools from various domains (that can be plugged into workflows) through its graphical web interface.
  • run code in interactive environments (RStudio, Jupyter...) along with other tools or workflows.
  • manage data by sharing and publishing results, workflows, and visualizations.
  • ensure reproducibility by capturing the necessary information to repeat and understand data analyses.

The Galaxy Community is actively involved in helping the ecosystem improve and sharing scientific discoveries.

Success Story: “TIaaS: Training Infrastructure as a Service”

TIaaS allows trainees’ jobs to be run preferentially and avoids long execution times, depending on the server load. By providing access to this service, the Galaxy Training Network ensured that TIaaS would be freely available to anyone and facilitated access to an extensive catalogue of FAIR training materials.
