Abstract layers of software development using python as an example. The python environment configuration is specified through the use of a requirements.txt file. The operating system where the python code runs is specified through the use of a Dockerfile. Such OS is encapsulated within a container and the container within a Kubernetes pod. The cluster manager generates the set of pods that consist a job (for example, running cell extraction routine of the pipeline of Fig. 2 on all acquired images). The job is then executed on the processing cluster.
