Biological SOAP servers and web services provided by the public sequence data bank

چکیده
A number of biological data resources (i.e. databases and data analytical tools) are searchable and usable on-line thanks to the internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) servers. The output from the web server is easy for us to browse. However, it is laborious and sometimes impossible for us to write a computer program that finds a useful data resource, sends a proper query and processes the output. It is a serious obstacle to the integration of distributed heterogeneous data resources. To solve the issue, we have implemented a SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) server and web services that provide a program-friendly interface. The web services are accessible at http://www.xml.nig.ac.jp/.

Enhancement of the SOAP Server in DDBJ Web Services to Process Tsunami of Biological Data
Thanks to the Internet and HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) [5], we can browse a number of biological databases and results from analytical tools that are distributed in the Web. The results are also become available in eXtensible Markup Language (XML) [7] documents at many sites in the Internet. In addition, web services [4] start prevailing in bioinformatics domain [3] following the trend i...

متن کاملData partitioning enables the use of standard SOAP Web Services in genome-scale workflows
Biological databases and computational biology tools are provided by research groups around the world, and made accessible on the Web. Combining these resources is a common practice in bioinformatics, but integration of heterogeneous and often distributed tools and datasets can be challenging. To date, this challenge has been commonly addressed in a pragmatic way, by tedious and error-prone scr...
متن کاملWeb API for biology with a workflow navigation system
DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) provides Web-based systems for biological analysis, called Web APIs for biology (WABI). So far, we have developed over 20 SOAP services and several workflows that consist of a series of method invocations. In this article, we present newly developed services of WABI, that is, REST-based Web services, additional workflows and a workflow navigation system. Each Web s...
