Overview of iVikodak web platform and its structured workflow. An overview of iVikodak's task management and well-structured personalized approach toward 16s rRNA gene sequencing based functional inference, analyses and visualization. Three inter-connected modules of iVikodak ensure comprehensive and meaningful analyses. Each submission to (any module of) iVikodak is tagged to a unique JOB ID, which provides access to a personal and portable dashboard. A dashboard represents an ensemble of “analysable, analyzed, and visualized” results, specific to the chosen module and the type of data uploaded by the end user. The generated dashboards (and associated taxonomic/functional data) can be deposited to the ReFDash repository. This is expected to pave the way for building/populating a community-driven readily accessible database of amplicon sequencing-based functional metagenomics projects and associated data.
