Bioinformatics Discoveries Have Evolved Beyond Outdated Infrastructure
Dramatic Growth of Data
Data, as the foundation of transformative discoveries in life science, has been growing dramatically. This growth places new demands on informatics infrastructure to meet the needs of life science workloads.
Need for Speed
To combat life-threatening diseases and create a healthier world, scientists and researchers need to accelerate time to insights from vast bioinformatic data, placing ultra-high demands on performance.
Complex Data Structure
Bioinformatics data often has complex structures, requiring researchers to perform intricate operations and processes, such as sequence alignment, which further increases the performance demands on storage systems.
Long-term Data Preservation
Bioinformatics data holds lasting value and is crucial for scientific research and medical applications. For long-term storage, stability, accessibility, and sustainability must be prioritized.
Collaboration & Data Sharing
As an interdisciplinary field, securely sharing bioinformatics data is essential for effective collaboration between research institutions and teams.
Storage Costs
As data grows rapidly, storage costs continue to rise. Reducing storage costs while maintaining data accessibility and availability is a significant challenge.
The YanRong Life Sciences Solution - Performance, Scalability, and Agility
YanRong has extensive project experiences in bioinformatics analysis scenarios. YRCloudFile is designed for efficient bioinformatic pipelines. Based on YRCloudFile's distributed architecture, data and metadata nodes can be scaled on demand to address data expansion issues arising from core business developments like gene sequencing.
Faster life changing discoveries require a new high-performance storage. YRCloudFile provides standard file interface protocols, along with a private client that features unique IO optimizations, enabling high-speed read/write capabilities for massive concurrent data access. Additionally, YRCloudFile uses EC technology to maximize effective storage capacity while controlling the total construction costs. And Intelligent data tiering further reduces data storage costs by automatically offloading cold data to object storage.
