Getting Started
What is the Latch SDK?
The Latch SDK is an open-source toolchain to define serverless bioinformatics workflows with plain Python and deploy associated no-code interfaces using single commands.
It takes months to build infrastructure with the compute, storage, and user-friendly interface necessary to run bioinformatics pipelines at scale.
Bioinformatics workflows developed with the SDK automatically receive:
Instant no-code interfaces for accessibility and publication
First class static typing
Containerization and versioning of every registered change
Reliable and scalable managed cloud infrastructure
Single line definition of arbitrary resource requirements (eg. CPU, GPU) for serverless execution
Get started with your first workflow
The Latch SDK provides two options for writing workflows:
- Create a fresh workflow with our Python SDK
- Upload an existing Snakemake pipeline
