Ó³»­´«Ã½

The amount of genomic data produced worldwide is growing at a pace that far exceeds Moore’s Law, doubling every eight months on average. The Ó³»­´«Ã½ alone produces nearly 20 terabytes of genomic data every day.

Processing that volume of data is labor- and resource-intensive. For that reason, DSP leverages the scalability and flexibility of cloud computing to carry out initial genomic data production processing: the translation of raw sequencing machine data into sequence reads, which are further examined using the platform’s analytical tools. In doing so, DSP has created and is maintaining and evolving a robust, secure ecosystem for data processing that feeds scientists at the Ó³»­´«Ã½ and elsewhere high-quality alignments and quality metrics from which to glean new insights.
