PROOF v1.0 Release

After four months of user feedback and development, a new version of DaSL’s PROOF (PRoduction On-ramp for Optimization and Feasibility) has been released! This release introduces multiple new features including GPU computing and S3 capabilities. It also provides critical fixes to issues that have come up throughout development, resulting in a more robust and efficient user interface.

PROOF is a user-friendly tool designed for managing and executing WDL (Workflow Description Language) workflows using the Cromwell workflow manager. PROOF allows users to:

• Automate all the backend configurations necessary to run your workflows instantly.
• Validate, troubleshoot, assess performance, and run their workflows all under one roof.
• Refine their workflows before potential transitions to cloud-based infrastructures, providing a ‘proofing’ resource of sorts.

While PROOF is currently configured to run on the Fred Hutch cluster, it is readily adaptable for local instances and/or instances hosted at other institutions. If interested, please email wilds@fredhutch.org with any questions. For more details on the exact updates included in this latest release, see the v1.0 release notes, or to try out these new features for yourself, visit proof.fredhutch.org to take PROOF v1.0 for a spin!
