System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

LatchBio Integration abstracts the complexity of building, deploying, and managing bioinformatics workflows by providing a decorator-based Python API, cloud data primitives, and a path to Nextflow/Snakemake compatibility.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Workflow Creation and Deployment: define modular steps with @workflow and @task decorators and automatically containerize for serverless execution.
  • Data Management: leverage LatchFile and LatchDir for cloud data handling and registry-backed data tracking.
  • Resource Configuration: specify CPU, memory, and GPU resources for tasks, with support for custom configurations and launch plans.
  • Use Case: rapidly prototype a small RNA-seq pipeline, then scale to production-ready workloads with verified workflows.

Quick Start

Install the Latch SDK and initialize and register a new workflow with the platform.
