Description

Sprocket is an bioinformatics workflow execution engine built on top of the Workflow Description Language. The project has multiple high-level goals, including to:

  • Provide a high-performance workflow execution engine capable of orchestrating massive bioinformatics workloads (the stated target is 20,000+ concurrent jobs).
  • Develop a suite of modern development tools that brings bioinformatics development on par with other modern languages (e.g., wdl-lsp).
  • Maintain an community-focused codebase that enables a diverse set of contributors from academic, non-profit, and commercial organizations.
  • Build on an open, domain-tailored standard to ensure the toolset remains singularly focused on unencumbered innovation within bioinformatics.
  • Retain a simple and accessible user experience when complexity isn't warranted.
