Data Mart Integration of the Proteome

Аннотация

A broad range of tasks in modem bioinformatics analysis require integration of data from disparate sources. The explosion of data in the postgenomic era blazes a trail that for integrative bioinformatics: the use of disparate information repositories to solve problems in data visualization, interpretation, and normalization which have previously been difficult to address. In order to integrate such repositories, we must maintain a dynamic dataintegration framework that is capable of processing large amounts of data in an optimal manner. Although these requirements may be opposed, we can reconcile them by combining the attributes of a federated database environment with data marts: high-performance, task-specific databases which can be rapidly generated and torn down, due to their small footprint.
