The Open Targets Platform infrastructure stack is composed of three layers, data, backend and frontend.
Data layer
Opensearch — Contains the bulk of the data
Clickhouse — Contains data related to associations view
Backend layer
API — The main backend application, providing the GraphQL engine
OpenAI-API — The summarizing engine for literature section
Frontend layer
Web — A React SPA web application
Currently this infrastructure is hosted on Google Cloud, using a load-balanced, globally distributed and highly scalable deployment based on Terraform.
As a consortium committed to developing open-source, freely available tools that support systematic drug target identification and prioritisation, we actively encourage and accept open source contributions to our various repositories.
— GraphQL API
— OpenAI API router
— Open Targets web applications
— Open Targets Infrastructure definition, scripts in charge of setting up the data layer with the relevant disk images and spinning up the rest of the infrastructure.
