I am trying to learn how Ensembl is structured. As Ensembl itself does not have a wiki nor a forum nor a public mailing list for user discussions, I'll document it here.
Some ideas:
- Everything is in mysql databases. No flat text files. Database schema documentation
- Sequences are stored
- Their pipeline systems inserts jobs into a mysql database as well
