EMBL/FASTA Wrapper for WebSphere Information Integrator Description

A huge amount of bioinformatical data is currently stored within flat files in numerous specialized databases, both public and private, set up in past decades by research institutions and laboratories all around the world. Accessing information stored in such databases is not a trivial task because specific bioinformatic tools and algorithms are required. Moreover, these tools often expose non-standard interfaces and query languages that make difficult such activities as integration or interoperation of these data sources. Among the dozens of formats for protein and DNA sequences stored in flat files, EMBL and FASTA certainly are widely used. EMBL/FASTA Wrapper for WebSphere Information Integrator enables applications as well as users to retrieve protein and DNA sequences and data stored in flat-file databases in either EMBL or FASTA format by using SQL as the query language. Thanks to key features provided by WebSphere Information Integrator and this non-relational wrapper, users can virtually "bring" EMBL/FASTA data into their federated databases in order not only to query a single, flat-file database, but to compose "federated queries" actually solved against both relational and non-relational data sources. EMBL/FASTA Wrapper for WebSphere Information Integrator allows handling of flat-file data sources just as relational databases are handled (for example, the LIKE SQL statement is supported for querying non-sequence parts of EMBL and FASTA entries.) Give EMBL/FASTA Wrapper for WebSphere Information Integrator a try to fully asses its capabilities!
