Open Source Ngs Variant Database.

I would like to store all of my NGS variants in a minable database. Are there any good open source solutions with a solid database design? I have found many great projects for tracking samples but I have not found a good solution for storing the variants. The data will be coming off a MiSeq so I don't need a solution that overly complex or scalable. Thanks

This seems to be a duplicate question (even by the same user). See the answers there. Is there a mechanism for merging such duplicates? Maybe the poster should summarize answers into the more complete thread and then retract/delete one of them?

Closed as duplicate on reccomendation from Obi.

This paper describes Ensembl's variation schema and API. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/11/238

You could also set up a local version of ensembl biomart's variation database and use its API to populate it with your own variation data.
