CHORD is a project to build a federated, Canadian, national data service for privacy- sensitive genomic and related health data. It allows the technologies and services being built by CanDIG and its international partners to be made available to the Canadian health research community more broadly.
CHORD is a set of microservices that allow the sharing, management, and discovery of genomic and health data across a federated network. CHORD heavily benefits from and utilizes GA4GH’s efforts to create standard APIs and formats for genomic and health data transfer and storage.
ClinDIG provides a federated data management and analysis solution for clinical and genomic data while to provide opportunity for distributed analysis centred on protecting patient privacy.
