To enhance the flexibility and accessibility of GenPipes, the Canadian Centre for Computational Genomics (C3G) offers GenPipes in the Cloud, enabling deployment of GenPipes pipelines in various computing environments, including the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This cloud-based solution allows researchers to leverage scalable infrastructure for their genomics workflows.

Key Features:

• Cloud Deployment Options: Utilize GenPipes on GCP, benefiting from scalable resources and flexible computing power.
• Comprehensive Documentation: Access detailed guides for deploying GenPipes in the cloud, on Compute Canada servers, locally, or within containerized environments.

Availability: GenPipes is free and open-source, licensed under the GPLv3. While the software itself is free, deploying GenPipes on cloud platforms like GCP may incur costs associated with cloud infrastructure usage, such as compute time and storage. Users are encouraged to consult the specific cloud service provider's pricing details to estimate potential expenses.

Technical Documentation:

• Deployment Options
• Deploying GenPipes in the Cloud
• Accessing GenPipes on Compute Canada Servers
• Deploying GenPipes Locally in Your Server
• Deploying GenPipes in a Container

Note: The supporting documentation is available in English only.

By offering cloud-based deployment options, C3G ensures that GenPipes remains a versatile and accessible tool for the genomics community, accommodating various computational needs and environments.
