Wave Lite

Wave Lite is a configuration mode for Wave containers that provides the following features:

  • Container augmentation
  • Container inspection

Wave Lite enables the use of Fusion file system in Nextflow pipelines on AWS, Azure, and GCP cloud deployments.

Installation

info

Docker Compose installations only support Wave in Lite mode. Wave's full build capabilities require specific integrations with Kubernetes and AWS EFS Storage, making EKS and AWS a hard dependency for fully-featured deployments. After you have successfully deployed Wave Lite in Kubernetes, see Configure Wave Build to extend your installation to support build capabilities.

Limitations

The following Wave features are not available in Lite configuration:

  • Container Freeze
  • Container Build service
  • Container Mirror service
  • Container Security scanning
  • Container blobs caching
