JABAWS consists of a server and client, but unlike most bioinformatics web service systems, you can download and run both parts on your own computer! If you want a server just for yourself, then download and install the JABAWS Virtual Appliance. It requires no configuration and is simple to install. If you want to install JABAWS for your lab or institution then download the JABAWS Web Application aRchive. It is slightly more complicated to configure but is very straightforward too. Finally, if you want to script against any version of JABAWS or are interested in writing your own client, the JABAWS command line client is what you need.
JABAWS Benefits
-- Can be deployed on most operating systems, as a VMWare or OpenBox compatible Virtual Appliance or a Tomcat Java Web Application.
+- Can be deployed on most operating systems, as a VMware or other compatible Virtual Appliance or a Tomcat Java Web Application.
- Comes complete with sources and binaries for all the bioinformatics programs that it runs.

- Easy to access from Jalview using its graphical client, or using the JABAWS command line client.
