Hi, I am new to the world of NGS bioinformatics. I am not very good with command based programs. I have an RNASeq dataset for 49 samples (paired-end reads). I am wondering if I can do the analyses using the web-based platform if I upload all the data through FTP. I have almost 130 Gb of data. Any help and guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Galaxy's web based tools can be used for RNA-seq analysis. This tutorial provides an overview: https://github.com/nekrut/galaxy/wiki/Reference-based-RNA-seq

Your data size may require the use of a local or cloud Galaxy. Please see: https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/BigPicture/Choices

For Support/Help resources, the Galaxy Wiki is a good place to find information: https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Support

Best, Jen, Galaxy team

Thank you for providing the resources Jennifer. One more questions, is the local or cloud Galaxy command based, or is the interface similar to the web-based platform?

The user interface is also web-based and from a usage perspective the same as what is found at http://usegalaxy.org. There is some very simple set-up with a few commands for a local but these are clearly documented. Cloudman also has some set-up and all is web-based. The links from the Choices wiki describe both.

I would suggest starting up a local quickly (should take less than 10 minutes) to give it a test drive.
