BioContainers architecture from the container request by the user in GitHub to the final container deposited in DockerHub (https://hub.docker.com/u/biocontainers) and Quay.io (https://quay.io/organization/biocontainers). The BioContainers community in collaboration with the BioConda community defines a set of guidelines and protocols to create a Conda and Docker container including mandatory metadata, tests and trusted images [9]. The proposed architecture uses a continuous integration system (CI) to test and build the final containers and deposit them into public registries. All the Containers and tools can be searched from the BioContainers registry (http://biocontainers.pro/regitry).
