Seven Bridges, the industry-leading bioinformatics ecosystem provider, announced the expansion of its platform to enable execution of workflows written in Nextflow and Workflow Description Language (WDL). In addition, the Seven Bridges platform will continue to support Common Workflow Language (CWL). This expansion will now empower more scientists to use the Seven Bridges interface in a secure, compliant, collaborative environment, to run tools described in the workflow language of their choice.
“CWL, WDL and Nextflow offer unique characteristics that make them attractive to researchers with varied expertise and at different phases of the research lifecycle,” said Jeff Gentry co-founder of WDL and CWL leadership member. “By supporting multiple workflow languages, Seven Bridges makes it easier for researchers to realize the benefit of reproducible analysis at scale.”
