How to set up a DAS/1 server
In general it is quite easy to set up DAS server. All the server implementations are easy to set up. Most server implementations allow easy setup using ready provided data-adaptors (e.g. for GFF files). For custom data simple plugins can be written to quickly provide your data via DAS.
DAS server implementations are available in several programming languages:
- Perl
Proserver LDAS
- Java
Dazzle Dazzle server at Sanger
