Learning Outcomes
  • Understand what a "Run" is in Via Foundry.
  • Identify the components associated with a "Run."

Runs

In the context of Via Foundry, a Run refers to an execution of a pipeline with a defined set of parameters within a project.

Runs are fundamental to the data analysis process, as they enable users to analyze data and derive insights based on the configurations set in the pipeline.

Purpose of a Run

The primary purpose of a "Run" in Via Foundry includes:

  • Data Processing: A Run executes data transformation or analysis processes as defined in the selected pipeline.
  • Reproducibility: Each Run is logged with its specific configurations, allowing users to reproduce analyses reliably.
  • Tracking Progress: Users can monitor the status of the Run to ensure successful completion or to troubleshoot any issues that arise.

Components of a Run

A typical Run in Via Foundry includes several key components:

  • Pipeline: The predefined sequence of data operations and transformations that are applied during the Run.
  • Parameters: Specific values or settings that influence how the pipeline processes data in that instance.
  • Status Indicators: Visual cues that inform users about the progress, completion, or any errors associated with the Run.
