Abstract

In this chapter, the authors will walk through the process of setting up resources in three Amazon Web Services (AWS) services that any genomics project will require: Virtual Private Cloud networking, Elastic Compute Cloud compute power, and Super Simple Storage. To have Elastic Compute Cloud instances in the AWS cloud and have them connect to anything, researchers need to establish a virtual private cloud (VPC). There is a lot to be written and understood about VPCs, but most of it does not apply to the work of genomics researchers. In almost any application, researchers will need to set up some Simple Storage Service (S3) buckets for the purpose of storing input and output data. S3 is one of the oldest and most mature of the AWS services, and it's super easy to set up S3 buckets. When researchers created their account, they established what is called the root user.
