cBioPortal is an open-source web application for visualization, analysis, and download of large-scale cancer genomics datasets. This repository contains the Java backend, with a separate frontend repo, deployable via Docker and backed by ClickHouse (v7) or MySQL (v6).

Use cases

  • explore and visualize large-scale cancer genomics data
  • host a private instance of a cancer genomics portal
  • analyze genomic alterations across tumor samples
  • download cancer genomics datasets for research
  • build precision medicine tools on top of genomics data

When to choose

  • you need a proven, self-hostable platform for exploring cancer genomics data
  • you want interactive visualization and analysis of mutation, CNA, and clinical data
  • you are a research lab or hospital deploying a private genomics portal

When to avoid

  • you need general-purpose bioinformatics pipelines rather than data exploration
  • you want a lightweight library to embed in another app rather than a full web application
  • you rely on v6 MySQL workflows and need active feature development
