SUMMARY:Invited Talk:  Bioinformatic Workflows
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\n\nInvited Talk:  Bioinformatic Workflows\n\nSherman\
 n\nContainers have become an essential tool for the deployment of scientif
 ic data pipelines in a portable and reproducible manner across clusters an
 d clouds. The immutability of containers is an essential concept in this c
 ontext because it guarantees that the environment in which pipeline tasks 
 are executed is not altered over time and is precisely replicable.  Howeve
 r, this principle collides with the continuously evolving nature of scient
 ific data analyses.  Modern scientific workflows can be composed of severa
 l dozens of tasks and corresponding containers, which developers need to m
 odify and deploy promptly to validate experiment hypotheses. This may requ
 ire re-building dozens of containers and uploading them to remote reposito
 ries, which forces developers to waste a significant amount of time on “in
 frastructure” tasks and adds considerable overhead to the overall developm
 ent and deployment cycle.  This talk will introduce a novel solution to th
 e problem of container provisioning for data analysis pipelines based on t
 he concept of container augmentation, which allows the extension of the co
 ntainer content at runtime without the need to store it in a persistent re
 pository.\n\nSession Format: Recorded\n\nRegistration Category: Workshop R
