Case Study: Botton-Champalimaud Pancreatic Centre achieves 3x infrastructure cost reduction with Seqera

Botton-Champalimaud Pancreatic Centre cuts infrastructure costs 3x with Seqera

The Botton-Champalimaud Pancreatic Centre, a translational research center, faced significant computational challenges in its mission to combat pancreatic cancer. Their small bioinformatics team was struggling with the multi-modal complexity of integrating various sequencing data types, the high potential cost of traditional high-performance computing (HPC), and manual bottlenecks in cloud infrastructure management that diverted focus from research.

By implementing Seqera's solutions, including the Seqera Platform and Seqera Compute for automated cloud provisioning, the center achieved immediate analytical capability. Seqera enabled a projected three-fold reduction in infrastructure costs over five years, saving an estimated €1 million. The solution also saved hundreds of setup hours and eliminated the need for two full-time employees dedicated to infrastructure management, allowing the team to fully concentrate on accelerating biomarker discovery.
