Bioinformatics clouds for high-throughput technologies

Bioinformatics traditionally deals with computational approaches to the analysis of big data from high-throughput technologies as genomics, proteomics, and sequencing. Bioinformatics analysis allows extraction of new information from big data that might help to better assess the biological details at a molecular and cellular level. The wide-scale and high-dimensionality of Bioinformatics data has led to an increasing need of high performance computing and repository. In this chapter, the authors demonstrate the advantages of cloud computing in Bioinformatics research for high-throughput technologies.
