The JGI-NERSC Partnership: Lessons in Data-Intensive Computing at Scale
On July 22, 2024, DOE Joint Genome Institute Chief Informatics Officer Kjiersten Fagnan spoke about the NERSC/JGI partnership for the special NERSC@50 Seminars series.
Fifteen years ago, the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) and NERSC formed a partnership to support the exponentially increasing scale of genomics data generation. There were close collaborations on data management, high-performance computing, and complex workflow deployments that have been foundational to JGI's efforts in resilient, distributed computing. In this talk, I'll highlight past successes, scientific discoveries, and JGI's NESAP-IRI Pathfinder project.
