AWS HealthOmics now supports the latest NVIDIA L4 and L40S graphical processing units (GPUs) and larger compute options of up to 192 vCPUs for workflows. AWS HealthOmics is a HIPAA-eligible service that helps healthcare and life sciences customers accelerate scientific breakthroughs with fully managed biological data stores and workflows. This release expands workflow compute capabilities to support more demanding workloads for genomics research and analysis.
In addition to current support for NVIDIA A10G and T4 GPUs, this release adds support for NVIDIA L4 and L40S GPUs, which enables researchers to efficiently run complex machine learning workloads such as protein structure prediction and biological foundation models (bioFMs). The enhanced CPU configurations with up to 192 vCPUs and 1,536 GiB of memory allows for faster processing of large-scale genomics datasets. These improvements help research teams reduce time-to-insight for critical life sciences work.
NVIDIA L4 and L40S GPUs and 128 and 192 vCPU omics instance types are now available in: US East (N. Virginia) and US West (Oregon). To get started with AWS HealthOmics workflows, see the documentation
