Building a RESTful DrugBank Using Ruby on Rails and JChem Base - Craig Knox (University of Alberta)

To facilitate the creation of a central structure hub for databases such as DrugBank and the Human Metabolome Database at the University of Alberta, we have integrated JChem Base with Ruby on Rails, a robust web-application framework. By using JRuby to bridge the Java and Ruby world, we have built a scalable solution for storing, retrieving, and searching structures. This presentation will discuss the implementation details and advantages of building a simple, standard, and web-accessible structure hub.
