Building Enterprise-Grade Bioinformatics Pipelines using Cloud-Scale Kubernetes
Workflow tools like Nextflow allow us to standardize and automate our bioinformatics pipelines. Coupled with Docker and Kubernetes, our pipelines then become portable and scalable. In this session, we will take a deep dive into the world of cloud-based Kubernetes and showcase the utility of containerized workflows for enabling enterprise-grade bioinformatics workflows in the cloud. Plus, we’ll demonstrate how cloud data lake are perfect for storing the immense amount of -omics data that life science orgs need to manage.
