Name
Service Info and Service Registry: Towards a federated Internet of Genomics
Description
The Service Info API is an endpoint for describing GA4GH service metadata, designed for extension and inclusion in other APIs. Service info is used to describe a single service, while Service Registry is used to describe multiple services.
The Service Registry API provides information about other GA4GH services, primarily for the purpose of organizing services into networks or groups and service discovery across organizational boundaries. It’s a minimalistic, simple, lightweight, read-only API for listing services and their metadata, as described by service-info.
