Making a big push into high-performance computing for life sciences
Today, Bio-IT World’s Editor-in-Chief, Kevin Davies, wrote about our next big move: Launching CLC Genomics Machine at ISMB in Stockholm, one week from now.
CEO at CLC bio, Thomas Knudsen, states
We have gone in a different direction than all other teams developing and refining algorithms for analyzing the massive amounts of data coming from the NGS instruments. Instead of constantly scaling up your hardware to the point where you need very big clusters or a cloud computing setup in order to do de novo assembly of large genomes, our scientific developers started from scratch and thought out some quite clever ways of handling those large amounts of data — to the point where a single CLC Genomics Machine can handle these tasks without breaking a sweat.
