Genomics workflows, Part 2: simplify Snakemake launches
Genomics workflows are high-performance computing workloads. In Part 1 of this series, we demonstrated how life-science research teams can focus on scientific discovery without the associated heavy lifting. We used regenie for large genome-wide association studies. Our design pattern built on AWS Step Functions with AWS Batch and Amazon FSx for Lustre. In Part 2, […]
Genomics workflows, Part 1: automated launches
Genomics workflows are high-performance computing workloads. Traditionally, they run on-premises with a collection of scripts. Scientists run and manage these workflows manually, which slows down the product development lifecycle. Scientists spend time to administer workflows and handle errors on a day-to-day basis. They also lack sufficient compute capacity on-premises. In Part 1 of this series, […]

Migrate your Applications to Containers at Scale
AWS App2Container is a command line tool that you can install on a server to automate the containerization of applications. This simplifies the process of migrating a single server to containers. But if you have a fleet of servers, the process of migrating all of them could be quite time-consuming. In this situation, you can […]
Field Notes: Three Steps to Port Your Containerized Application to AWS Lambda
AWS Lambda support for container images allows porting containerized web applications to run in a serverless environment. This gives you automatic scaling, built-in high availability, and a pay-for-value billing model so you don’t pay for over-provisioned resources. If you are currently using containers, container image support for AWS Lambda means you can use these benefits […]

Snowflake: Running Millions of Simulation Tests with Amazon EKS
This post was co-written with Brian Nutt, Senior Software Engineer and Kao Makino, Principal Performance Engineer, both at Snowflake. Transactional databases are a key component of any production system. Maintaining data integrity while rows are read and written at a massive scale is a major technical challenge for these types of databases. To ensure their […]
Serverless Architecture for a Web Scraping Solution
If you are interested in serverless architecture, you may have read many contradictory articles and wonder if serverless architectures are cost effective or expensive. I would like to clear the air around the issue of effectiveness through an analysis of a web scraping solution. The use case is fairly simple: at certain times during the […]
