Microsoft Genomics service “GATK 4.0” Public Preview
Run 20 Whole Genome or Exome Germline samples
at no cost before June 30, 2019 (Extended due to demand)
Today’s healthcare organizations, academic institutions, and clinical labs are looking for simpler workflows and resources to handle the increased demand for next-generation sequencing (NGS). These organizations benefit from Microsoft’s trusted industry-leading approaches to security, privacy, compliance, and data durability in the cloud. When you combine this with our cost competitive pricing model it makes it very simple to understand and forecast your workload costs.
With a cloud-based toolset that can seamlessly integrate with existing pipelines, Microsoft gives you the ability to analyze genomic data in Azure faster, allowing researchers and medical professionals to get results in hours, versus days. This sample-to-answer process has had a refresh with the latest genomics service update to the Broad Institute’s BWA-GATK 4 pipeline.
To learn how you can accelerate your genomics research with Azure, the Microsoft cloud, we invite you to register for the Microsoft Genomics service public preview.
During public preview you can analyze up to 20 WGS samples at no cost. This preview will be open through June 30, 2019. Please use this opportunity to test your current pipeline against the Microsoft Genomics service and run a small sample set to test for performance and concordance. Feedback to your experience is welcome and appreciated.
