Perform genome analysis and sequencing of data with Amazon Web Services. From its title, you can conclude that this book is about two things: genomics (the science of sequencing and interpreting genetic data) and Amazon Web Services (one of the three big hosted computing platforms). Genomics in the AWS Cloud, therefore, is meant to appeal either to people from a biology background who want to learn how to do genomics work with AWS or to people with a computer background who want to find out how to apply their skills to genomics. Storing Genomics and Medical (e.g., imaging) data at different stages requires enormous storage in a cost-effective manner. Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), Amazon Glacier, and Amazon Elastics Block Store (Amazon EBS) provide the necessary solutions to securely store, manage, and scale genomic file storage. Moreover, the storage services can interface with various compute services from AWS to process these files.
