Upload genomes with your web browser

Upload genomes with your web browser is good if:

  • You're uploading smaller datasets (less than tens of gigabytes)
  • You don't want to install a special application to transfer data

In other cases it may be better to upload data with the Globus Connect Personal application.

When uploading data with your web browser the transfer is protected with HTTPS encryption to keep your data safe in transit.
