Whitepaper: Genomics Data Transfer, Analytics, and Machine Learning using AWS Services
This white paper describes how to build a next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform from instrument to interpretation using AWS services, with recommendations and reference architectures for developing the platform including: 1) transferring genomics data to the AWS and establishing data access patterns, 2) running secondary analysis workflows, 3) performing tertiary analysis with data lakes, and 4) performing tertiary analysis using machine learning.
