DNAnexus represents a new paradigm in DNA sequence storage and analysis, marrying cloud computing infrastructure with scalable systems design and advanced bioinformatics. From the very beginning, our design has been guided by the idea that “Megabase” has been replaced by “Gigabase” as the unit of sequence data, and that Terabase sequencing runs and large-scale whole-genome sequencing will soon be the norm.

By building our infrastructure from the ground up to run on Amazon Web Services, the world’s leading cloud computing provider, our solution delivers not just software, but also all the computing and storage infrastructure. 100,000s of CPUs and 100s of petabytes of storage are available to you through DNAnexus, which acquires those resources on-demand, allowing our pricing to mirror your usage.
