Flashflood Documentation

Flashflood is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) workflow-based HTTP API server builder. Input data is processed according to the workflow definition (data processing nodes and dataflow edges) and then the result JSON (and other formats) will be broadcasted via HTTP. This offers instant database access API to users to share their results and analysis regardless of their programming langages and environments.

Features
