This solution provides a framework for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) genomics secondary-analysis pipelines using AWS Step Functions and AWS Batch. It deploys AWS services to develop and run custom workflow pipelines, monitor pipeline status and performance, fail-over to on-demand, handle errors, optimize for cost, and secure data with least-privileges.
The solution is designed to be starting point for developing your own custom genomics workflow pipelines using Amazon States Language and AWS Step Functions using continuous integration / continuous deployment (CI/CD) principles. That is everything - from the workflow definitions, to the resources they need to run on top of - is code, tracked in version control, and automatically built, tested, and deployed when developers make changes.
To deploy this solution in your account use the "Launch in the AWS Console" button found on the solution landing page.
We recommend deploying the solution this way for most use cases.
This will create all resources you need to get started developing and running genomics secondary analysis pipelines. This includes an example containerized toolset and definition for a simple variant calling pipeline using BWA-MEM, Samtools, and BCFtools.
Install options
A fully customized solution can be deployed for the following use cases:
- Modifying or adding additional resources deployed during installation
- Modifying the "Landing Zone" of the solution - e.g. adding additional artifacts or customizing the "Pipe" CodePipeline
Fully customized solutions need to be self-hosted in your own AWS account, and you will be responsible for any costs incurred in doing so.
To deploy and self-host a fully customized solution use the instructions below.
Note: All commands assume a bash
shell.

cd ./deployment
chmod +x ./run-unit-tests.sh
./run-unit-tests.sh
The solution requires two buckets for deployment:
<bucket-name>
for the solution's primary CloudFormation template<bucket-name>-<aws_region>
for additional artifacts and assets that the solution requires - these are stored regionally to reduce latency during installation and avoid inter-regional transfer costs
export DIST_OUTPUT_BUCKET=<bucket-name>
export SOLUTION_NAME=<solution-name>
export VERSION=<version>
chmod +x ./build-s3-dist.sh
./build-s3-dist.sh $DIST_OUTPUT_BUCKET $SOLUTION_NAME $VERSION
Note: you must have the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) installed for this step. Learn more about the AWS CLI here.
cd ./deployment
# deploy global assets
# this only needs to be done once
aws s3 cp \
./global-s3-assets/ s3://<bucket-name>/$SOLUTION_NAME/$VERSION \
--recursive \
--acl bucket-owner-full-control
# deploy regional assets
# repeat this step for as many regions as needed
aws s3 cp \
./regional-s3-assets/ s3://<bucket-name>-<aws_region>/$SOLUTION_NAME/$VERSION \
--recursive \
--acl bucket-owner-full-control
The link to the primary CloudFormation template will look something like:
https://<bucket-name>.s3-<region>.amazonaws.com/genomics-secondary-analysis-using-aws-step-functions-and-aws-batch.template
Use this link to install the customized solution into your AWS account in a specific region using the AWS Cloudformation Console.
