The Sequence Read Archive (SRA), produced by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine (NLM) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), stores raw DNA sequencing data and alignment information from high-throughput sequencing platforms. The SRA provides open access to these biological sequence data to support the research community's efforts to enhance reproducibility and make new discoveries by comparing data sets. Buckets in this registry contain public SRA data in the original (user submitted) format from select high value and newly-released studies as well as all public-access SRA formatted ETL+BQS data. Also included is all SRA metadata that can be leveraged for attribute-based data discovery.
CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security (FCS) is a unified platform that integrates key cloud security capabilities—including CSPM, DSPM, ASPM, CWP, and CIEM—to help detect and respond to threats quickly across multi-cloud environments.
By leveraging an analytics engine called ExPRT.AI, it prioritizes the most critical risks and identifies potential attack paths to block them proactively, thereby reducing security blind spots while improving operational efficiency and lowering costs.
This service ensures stable security operations by providing end-to-end integrated support, covering everything from initial agent deployment during FCS adoption to regular maintenance, technical support, and operational training.
AtomikHub is a multi-cloud observability platform that unifies database and infrastructure monitoring, FinOps cost management, and AI-driven root cause analysis across AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI and on-prem, at a fraction of legacy APM cost.

This repository is a re-analysis of the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA), December 2023 freeze, to make it more accessible. The SRA is an open access database of biological sequences, containing raw data from high-throughput DNA and RNA sequencing platforms. It is the largest database of public DNA sequences worldwide, containing a wealth of genomic diversity across all living organisms. This repository contains Logan, a set of compressed FASTA files for all individual SRA accessions, in the form of unitigs and contigs. Borrowing methods from the realm of genome assembly, unitigs preserve nearly all the information present in the original sample, whereas contigs get rid of variations to increase sequence lengths. Altogether, Logan recapitulates the information present in the SRA while making it an order of magnitude more accessible due to 20-100x smaller size and higher quality genomic content.
