The widespread deployment of large-scale, compute-intensive applications such as highperformance computing, artificial intelligence, and big data is leading to convergence between cloud and high-performance computing infrastructures. Cloud providers are increasingly integrating high-performance computing capabilities…

Serverless computing (also known as functions as a service) is a new cloud computing abstraction that makes it easier to write robust, large-scale web services. In serverless computing, programmers write what are called serverless functions, which are programs that respond to external events. When demand for the…

'Perry Cheng' 'Stephen J. Fink' 'Vatche Ishakian' 'Nick Mitchell' 'Vinod Muthusamy' 'Rodric Rabbah' 'Aleksander Slominski' 'Philippe Suter'] Abstract Serverless computing has emerged as a new compelling paradigm for the deployment of applications and services. It represents an evolution of cloud programming models…

Serverless computing -- an emerging cloud-native paradigm for the deployment of applications and services -- represents an evolution in cloud application development, programming models, abstractions, and platforms. It promises a real pay-as-you-go billing (with millisecond granularity) with no waste of resources, and…

Public cloud serverless platforms have attracted a large user base due to their high scalability, plug-and-play deployment model, and pay-per-use billing. However, compared to virtual machines and container hosting services, modern serverless offerings typically impose higher per-unit time and resource charges.…

Singe cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become a routine method for measuring cell activities. Processing large scRNA-seq datasets requires high-performance computing resources. The emergence of cloud computing allows us to leverage its on-demand capabilities without major investment in infrastructure. Serverless…

We have used serverless AWS Lambda functions to align 640 million reads in less than 3 minutes, a speed-up of 500x over the single-threaded implementation. Using a hybrid cloud architecture and software modified to optimize disk transfers, an entire RNA sequencing workflow transforming multiplexed reads to transcript…

Neuroscience research in Drosophila is benefiting from large-scale connectomics efforts using electron microscopy (EM) to reveal all the neurons in a brain and their connections. In order to exploit this knowledge base, researchers target individual neurons and study their function. Therefore, vast libraries of fly…

Genomic researchers are increasingly utilizing commercial cloud platforms (CCPs) to manage their data and analytics needs. Commercial clouds allow researchers to grow their storage and analytics capacity on demand, keeping pace with expanding project data footprints and enabling researchers to avoid large capital…
