# Tyger



Tyger is a framework for remote signal processing. It enables reliable

transmission of data to remote computational resources, where the data can be

processed and transformed as it streams in. It was designed for streaming raw

signal data from an MRI scanner to the cloud, where much more compute power is

typically available to reconstruct images from the signal. However, its

application is not limited to MRI and it could be used in a variety of domains

and scenarios.



At a high level, Tyger is a REST API that abstracts over an Azure Kubernetes

cluster and Azure Blob storage. Tyger can also be installed locally, requiring

only Docker. Future plans include support for on-prem Kubernetes deployments. It

includes a command-line tool, `tyger`, for easy interaction with this API. Users

specify signal processing code as a container image.



Tyger is centered around **stream processing**, allowing data to be processed as

it is acquired, without needing to wait for the complete dataset. It is based on

an **asynchronous** model, where data producers do not need to wait for the

availability of data consumers. Additionally, data consumers can operate during

or after data production, since data streams are Write Once Read Many

(**WORM**).



Signal processing code can be written in any language, as long as it can read

and write to named pipes (which are file-like but do not support random access).

There is no SDK, meaning you can develop, test, and debug code on your laptop

using only files, without Tyger dependencies. Then, you build a container image

to run the same code in the cloud with Tyger.



Tyger is designed to be both powerful and easy to use. Its implementation is

also simple, since a lot of the heavy lifting is done by proven technologies

like Kubernetes and Azure Blob Storage.
