[ome-users] General information request

[Bernd Jagla]

Hi,

 

I am setting up the IT infrastructure for an HTS/HCS lab that is using a HT
imaging system and have a couple of questions regarding OME and its
usability:

 

*	Is anyone using OME for HT imaging of cell based assays? If so,
could I get in contact with these people to exchange some experience?

 

*	Can automation equipment be linked to OME?

 

*	Can I easily integrate such systems as ActivityBase, Genedata or
similar products?

 

*	Would OME try to replace such systems as ActivityBase or GeneData?

 

*	What kind of hardware recommendations do you have?

 

*	Are images stored inside the DB or as linked files? (I understood
from the web-page that they are inside the DB as blobs, but don't understand
why.)

 

I would very much appreciate if someone could contact me directly. 

I am very interested in participating actively in the project, but I first
need to understand how I could fit in. 

 

Thank you very much for your kind help.

 

Bernd
