New Partnership with Parabricks

High Performance Secondary Analysis of Genomic Data

Leymus Genomics are happy to announce our partnership with Parabricks, the first to bring secondary analysis with GATK to GPUs in the cloud or local with NVIDIA.

Parabricks provides 30-50 times faster secondary analysis of FASTQ files coming out of sequencers to VCF files that have the variants for tertiary analysis. Parabricks accelerates existing GATK best practices to generate equivalent results as the baseline CPU-only solution.

  • Turnkey Solution: Parabricks software runs on standard CPU and GPU nodes available on the cloud and requires no additional setup steps by the user.
  • On-Premise and Cloud Agnostic: The Parabricks software can run on local servers like DGX-1 servers or public cloud such as AWS, Google Cloud Services and Microsoft Azure.
  • 100% Deterministic and Reproducible: Any configuration of Parabricks software on any platform with any number of resources, generates the exact same results every execution.
  • Equivalent results: Parabricks’ pipeline generates equivalent results as baseline GATK 4 best practices pipeline as the same algorithm is used.
