Containerised Bioinformatics on AWS: How We Achieved 20x Lower Compute Costs, & Infinite Scalability

Learn more about AWS at - amzn.to/2yXbKsW.
The Garvan Institute of Medical Research and Genome undertook a joint pilot project with AWS to optimise and customise our genomic analysis. We have run over 4,500 genomes through a new genomic pipeline, developed to the Broad Institute Best Practices leveraging Amazon’s ECS, SQS, RDS, CloudFormation, CloudWatch and Spot Instances to optimise specifically for the cloud. This session will present our architecture, learnings, and the cost reductions we’ve achieved.
