Challenges

AGRF’s genomic analyses underpin time-sensitive research projects, making fast and accurate data paramount. To accelerate sequencing pipeline analytics, AGRF needed to replace legacy technologies that could not meet the need for real-time genomics data and limited adoption of new projects due to high storage latency and low bandwidth.

Results

Business Transformation

Brings the power of genomics to life-saving healthcare testing and research by slashing analysis time
Empowers researchers to develop innovative treatments more quickly
Achieves larger economies of scale to support more international projects

IT Transformation

Speeds pre-analysis data workflows 6x, accelerating project delivery
