## Abstract

Summary:
Xenbase is a very complex computing environment consisting of multiple separate
databases, many different software applications, the user and curator web interfaces
and many automated data exchange pipelines - all of which are integrated by a middle
layer of complex custom code. Keeping all of these systems working seamlessly and
efficiently requires constant monitoring, testing, maintenance, bug fixing and upgrading.
Each time new software is implemented it must be extensively tested and optimized so
that it is properly integrated with existing systems. The goal of the Computing
Component is keep Xenbase operational, reliable, and responsive, to maintain and
upgrade the hardware, infrastructure, software and systems necessary for peak
performance and to support the proposed improvements described in other sections of
this application.
