Environments

Pre-Requisites

The current implementation required CDISC library access to access CDISC standards (freely available also for non-CDISC-members), a Neo4j database license for the database (a community version is available) and a set of servers where the web applications and API services can run. A docker-setup is available as well.

Access to the open-source code is available via GitLab.

Access to a cloud-based or a dedicated evaluation environment can be provided by Neo4j free of charge. Please check the following section for more information.

It is also possible to run the full system on a local desktop environment or on an individual cloud subscription on any of the main cloud providers. Instructions on how to set up the system on a local desktop can be found in the readme file. The different components can also be used independently due to the modular implementation and API usages - install instructions are available in the single sub-areas readme files.

Cloud evaluation environments

To evaluate the OpenStudyBuilder, Neo4j can provide you with an evaluation environment in different flavors, cloud-based and leveraging AuraDB.

This environment can be provided to you in different ways:

Type Access Complete initial dataset Custom data Usable for production Pricing
Sandbox Public No No - creating elements is possible, but this environment will be refreshed periodically No Free
Custom sandbox Restricted Optionally Yes No Free - Limited time
Dedicated Restricted Yes Yes Optionally See contact details below

All of the above can be made available in a modular fashion, for instance:

  1. Neo4j AuraDB database + OpenStudyBuilder App and API
  2. Neo4j AuraDB database + OpenStudyBuilder API (build your own Study Builder app on top of it)
  3. Neo4j AuraDB database only (for exploration purposes)

Please note that Neo4j AuraDB exists in 3 flavors :

  1. Free - Free forever, with limited number of nodes and relationships
  2. Pro - Pay as you go, for medium scale applications
  3. Enterprise - Advanced security and support
