Galaxy

Galaxy is an open platform for supporting data intensive research.

Its goal is to develop and maintain a system that enables researchers without informatics expertise to perform computational analyses through the web. A user interacts with Galaxy through the web by uploading and analyzing the data. The advantage of the University of Tartu Galaxy is that the data is processed in a local cluster and in a secure environment.

If you are planning to launch jobs on big NGS datasets, please contact us first for support on tool profiling and resource allocation.

Pricing

The table below indicates the prices of our services for the structural units of University of Tartu and users outside of the University. For additional information please check our pricing.

HPC Compute servers
  • CPU 0.012 EUR/core h or
  • Memory 0.012 EUR/6GB/h.
  • GPU 0.5 EUR/GPU/h.

  • Memory usage is calculated by 6 GB segments.
    Price depends on the use of which resource is greater. Accounting of the use the computing servers is based on the amount of memory (with 1 unit being equal to 6 GB of RAM/h) and processors (with 1 unit being equal to 1 core/h) allocated to the user’s job(s).

  • When determining the order of starting compute jobs, jobs with higher priority are given preference.
