basecall

Wrapper around Dorado for basecalling Nanopore files

Choosing the right EC2 instance

To run the Dorado basecaller, you need a machine with a GPU that supports CUDA drivers. According to public benchmarking data, g5.xlarge is the most cost-effective machine for basecalling. We use this EC2 instance with the Deep Learning Base OSS Nvidia Driver AMI (Amazon Linux 2) (AMI identifier: ami-069699babcf73a576).
