Rainbow Semi-Automated Workflow

Rainbow Workflow

Rainbow is a scalable workflow for whole genome sequencing analysis. It combines:
  1. PICARD, a Java-based command-line utility that manipulates SAM/BAM files
  2. Bowtie, an ultrafast and memory efficient short read aligner
  3. SoapSNP, an accurate genotyper
  4. SNP_Merger, an in-house developed application for SNP consolidations
These tools are combined in Semi-automatic, parallel pipeline that runs in the cloud (Amazon Web Services’ EC2, S3, and Elastic MapReduce offerings in this case).
