Case Study: Illumina achieves faster, scalable genomics analysis with Amazon Web Services

Illumina Brings Genomics from Samples to Answers Using AWS

Illumina needed a secure, scalable way to manage the full genomics workflow—from sample preparation and sequencing through bioinformatics analysis—without forcing researchers and clinicians to juggle separate platforms. Using Amazon Web Services, Illumina built integrated cloud-based genomics solutions to help customers track samples, store data, and run advanced analyses more efficiently.

Amazon Web Services supported Illumina with services including Amazon S3, Amazon EC2, Amazon EC2 Spot Instances, and AWS Virtual Private Cloud. With AWS, Illumina accelerated analysis with DRAGEN on EC2 and delivered end-to-end workflows in a secure environment, enabling faster results, easier data aggregation, and flexible deployment of new features and product versions for customers.
