BioMart Course Overview

BioMart is a generic data management system which offers a range of advanced query interfaces and administration tools. The BioMart project provides free software and data services to the international scientific community in order to foster scientific collaboration and facilitate the scientific discovery process. The project adheres to the open source philosophy that promotes collaboration and code reuse.

Using BioMart’s unique data federation technology, a Central Portal was established to provide a convenient single point of access to all of these data, which is distributed worldwide.

The system comes with built-in support for query-optimization and database federation. BioMart provides users with the ability to conduct fast, powerful queries using either web, graphical, or text based applications, or programmatically using web service or software libraries written in Perl and Java. For data providers, the system simplifies the task of integrating their own data with other datasets hosted on the network.

BioMart is a community-driven project to provide a single point of access to distributed research data. The BioMart project contributes open source software and data services to the international scientific community.
