Tree of Life Enabling Platforms
Tree of Life Programme
Our software
Most of our software is written in Python and Javascript (React) and deployed on Sanger’s in-house cloud (OpenStack). We like to work in an agile way, delivering software in a two-weekly sprint cycle. We work very closely with other teams in the Tree of Life programme to define their requirements. Covering such a wide range of the programme’s work (everything up to the point where the genomes have been produced) means our work is quite varied – we could be doing anything from helping interface a lab instrument, or specifying an API or UI, to working with external partners to share our programme’s results.
