Integrated entry retrieval system

DDBJ has provided the following 2 indepedent entry search/retrieval systems through WWW　so far.

1. entry retrieval by database specific IDs : getentry
2. keyword search : ARSA

With the computer system replacement in NIG scheduled in March 2012, these 2 functions are unified to "ARSA".

Current individual functions of getentry and ARSA are provided as webAPI as well as web application .
Although DDBJ users can select preferable one (web application or WebAPI), WebAPI is convenient method.
