The EMBL-EBI provides free access to popular bioinformatics sequence analysis applications as well as to a full-featured text search engine with powerful cross-referencing and data retrieval capabilities. Access to these services is provided via user-friendly web interfaces and via established RESTful and SOAP Web Services APIs (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/seqdb/confluence/display/JDSAT/EMBL-EBI+Web+Services+APIs+-+Data+Retrieval). Both systems have been developed with the same core principles that allow them to integrate an ever-increasing volume of biological data, making them an integral part of many popular data resources provided at the EMBL-EBI. Here, we describe the latest improvements made to the frameworks which enhance the interconnectivity between public EMBL-EBI resources and ultimately enhance biological data discoverability, accessibility, interoperability and reusability.
EMBL-EBI 提供免费访问流行的生物信息学序列分析应用程序,以及功能齐全的全文搜索引擎,具有强大的交叉引用和数据检索功能。通过用户友好的 Web 界面以及经过验证的 RESTful 和 SOAP Web Services APIs(https://www.ebi.ac.uk/seqdb/confluence/display/JDSAT/EMBL-EBI+Web+Services+APIs+-+Data+Retrieval)提供对这些服务的访问。这两个系统都是基于相同的核心原则开发的,这些原则允许它们集成越来越多的生物数据,使它们成为 EMBL-EBI 提供的许多流行数据资源的重要组成部分。在这里,我们描述了对框架所做的最新改进,这些改进增强了公共 EMBL-EBI 资源之间的互联性,最终增强了生物数据的可发现性、可访问性、互操作性和可重用性。
