WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
I've considered using Nextflow for bioinformatics pipelines but have yet to take the plunge. At work, I develop a proteomics pipeline that is composed of huey¹ tasks (Python library; simple alternative to Celery) which either use subprocess to call out to some external tool, or are just pure python. It runs in a worker container which is created by docker swarm, and all containers pull jobs from redis. For our scale, it works great. However, I don't have control over the resource utilization of individual steps, and in the past I've had issues with the pipeline blocking as a result of how I was chaining tasks together. I think something like Nextflow would remove these limitations, but one thing I think I would miss is the ability to debug individual pipeline steps locally with an interactive debugger. As far as I can tell, Nextflow has logging/tracing facilities but nothing quite like an interactive debugger. I'd be happy to be told I'm wrong, or even that I'm doing it wrong.
