# About the service

The Australian Nextflow Seqera Service is a centralised web platform for managing, launching and monitoring the execution of Nextflow bioinformatics pipelines on [Seqera-compatible compute environments](https://docs.seqera.io/platform/latest/compute-envs/overview). Australian research organisations and individual researchers can add compute infrastructure they have access to and publish pipelines to private or shared workspaces to run data analyses at scale. The service provides access to all features available through the [Seqera Platform](https://seqera.io/platform/) including data exploration and analysis as well as notebook analysis.

# Operational Partners

[Australian BioCommons](https://www.biocommons.org.au/) (whose lead agent is the University of Melbourne) operates the Australian Nextflow Seqera Service in collaboration with [Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre](https://pawsey.org.au/), [National Computational Infrastructure (NCI)](https://nci.org.au/), and [Seqera](https://seqera.io/). The Service was established as an output of the Australian BioCommons [Bring Your Own Data Expansion Project](https://www.biocommons.org.au/byo-data-platform-expansion) and is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). It is supported by [Bioplatforms Australia](https://www.bioplatforms.com/) via [NCRIS funding](https://www.education.gov.au/ncris).

# Communicating changes to the service
Changes to the Australian Nextflow Seqera Services including version upgrades, networking changes and others need to be communicated to all Australian BioCommons Service Contacttional partners, compute providers and users. All these changes should be communicated to the Australian BioCommons Service Contact and they will communicate this information to all relevant Operational Partners.

1. Make sure that the working directory of the Agent is not used as a working directory by other users. This can cause access permission issues.
2. Consider running the Agent in the background or using jobs on the HPC, so you don’t need to start the Agent very often.
