Figure 6: Cloud-native and on-premise software facilitates deployment of Mesmer.

A centralized web server, https://deepcell.org, hosts a version of the Mesmer pipeline. Users with moderate amounts of data (<10³ 1-megapixel images) to process can access this pipeline through a web portal. Alternatively, users can use ImageJ and QuPath plugins that submit data to the https://deepcell.org web server and retrieve the results. We have also created a containerized version of Mesmer that is compatible with existing workflow managers, so that users with larger amounts of data (>10³ 1-megapixel images) to process can benefit from our work.
