SRS WSObjects enables developers to quickly build life science informatics solutions incorporating the full capabilities of SRS. Using SRS WSObjects’ comprehensive APIs applications can be developed to address internal needs whilst exploiting the comprehensive data sets and analysis tools provided by SRS. Custom interfaces can be built to tackle novel problems, such as constructing workflows and analysis pipelines to assess gene expression results or provide protein annotations. All applications can be run against a single SRS server, which is also used to support the web interface, ensuring a simple and robust SRS architecture.
