Abstract

This chapter discussed the latest development of using cloud-computing technology for genome sequencing in bioinformatics field. It introduced the definition of genome sequencing and cloud computing, discussed the current status of NGS in cloud with the example of Nimbix. It also provided a rich source of cloud computing related service providers and technologies for references. Finally, it discussed the challenges of conducting NGS in a cloud environment.
