DNAnexus® Use Case | Genomic Analysis

WHY DNANEXUS

Solve the Challenges of Data Deluge

Making use of the influx of next-generation sequencing data requires overcoming challenges of standardization, scale, collaboration, and compliance. Managing do-it-yourself bioinformatics infrastructure is costly, time consuming, and only a band-aid solution.

Harness the Power of NGS

DNAnexus offers an end-to-end NGS analysis platform with access to bioinformatic and data science tools to build and run your analysis workflows. Or bring your own tools using DOCKER, CWL, WDL. We make it easy to seamlessly stream data from your sequencing instruments to the cloud and automate and standardize analysis workflows to make you more productive.

Scale NGS without limits
Focus on the science and not IT infrastructure management
Bring your own analytical pipelines or build them from a library of common applications
Collaborate across hallways or borders

Key Capabilities

1 SCALABILITY & Performance

The Sky's the Limit

The DNAnexus cloud-based platform can match your computational and storage demands at any scale. Out-of-the-box job and data management supports thousands of nodes and millions of objects, offering parallelizable execution of data analysis on multiple choices of instance types for optimization at every stage.

2 Global Collaboration

The Power of Teamwork

Give team members and global collaborators everything they need in one secure environment, including data, dashboards, files, notebooks, and analysis tools. Protect who sees what with role-based access, PHI controls and project-level access rights.

3 Reproducible Results

Power-Up Your Data Analysis
