Product Overview
Firehose is an analysis infrastructure developed at The Broad Institute to coordinate the flow of terabyte-scale datasets through dozens of quantitative algorithms. Implemented primarily as a Java web application, the chief aims of Firehose are reproducibility, automation, and high throughput. To achieve the first of these goals Firehose version-tracks samples, algorithms, and the logic which binds them together, at committed time period.
