Loading...Introduction to Synthetic Biology Pipelines
When I first started working with synthetic biology pipelines, I realized that the documentation often skipped the hard part - implementing and scaling these pipelines in production. Last quarter, our team discovered that our pipeline was failing at scale due to inefficient use of BioPython 2.0 and Jupyter Notebooks. Here's what I learned when trying to build a synthetic biology pipeline with these tools, along with Dask 2023.6 for distributed computing.
The Problem We Faced
We had 10,000 genetic sequences to process, and our initial approach using BioPython 2.0 and Jupyter Notebooks was taking over 24 hours to complete. We tried surface codes first, but that was a complete failure. When I first tried this, it broke because the memory usage was too high. Our team insisted on using a more efficient approach, so we turned to Dask 2023.6 for help.
Solution Overview
We chose to build our pipeline around BioPython 2.0 for genetic sequence processing, Jupyter Notebooks for interactive development, and Dask 2023.6 for distributed computing.
