Built for open science

A federated, community-driven platform for genomic data, protocols, and tools. Built with Elixir and Rust — fast, open, and yours to run.

Rust-Powered Performance

The Cyanea crate ecosystem processes genomic data at native speed. SIMD-accelerated alignment, zero-copy parsing, and streaming I/O for files of any size.

  • Parallel processing across all cores
  • Memory-mapped I/O for large files
  • Streaming compression (zstd, gzip)

Federated by Design

Run your own Cyanea instance and federate with the network. Your data stays on your infrastructure while remaining discoverable by the community.

  • Self-host on your own servers
  • ActivityPub-compatible federation
  • Cross-instance search and discovery

Community-First

Datasets, protocols, and tools are shared openly. Fork protocols, remix datasets, and contribute back — like GitHub for biology.

  • Version-controlled datasets and protocols
  • Fork-and-adapt workflows
  • Organization and team workspaces

Browser-Native Tools

Spaces run bioinformatics tools directly in your browser via WebAssembly. No installation, no data uploads — just open and use.

  • WASM-powered sequence viewers
  • Client-side file conversion
  • Interactive visualizations

API & CLI

Integrate Cyanea into your existing workflows. A comprehensive REST API and CLI make automation and scripting straightforward.

  • RESTful API with OpenAPI spec
  • CLI for scripted workflows
  • Webhook support for automation

Built on Elixir

The platform layer runs on Elixir and the BEAM VM — designed for fault tolerance, real-time features, and horizontal scalability out of the box.

  • Real-time collaboration via Phoenix
  • Fault-tolerant supervision trees
  • Hot code upgrades with zero downtime
