Genomics England improves operational efficiency and end-user experience with Amazon WorkSpaces
Genomics England selected fully managed Amazon WorkSpaces to empower researchers with access to the data and tools needed to do their jobs, while integrating with applications already running at AWS.
Overview
Watch Graham Binns, Director of IT Strategy & Architecture at Genomics England, speak at re:Invent 2023 about the company’s journey toward adopting WorkSpaces.
With a constantly expanding data set and community of researchers using advanced tools to analyze the human genome, Genomics England wanted to optimize the end-user experience and streamline IT operations. The company had outgrown its on-premises VDI solution and needed to maximize security, scalability, and performance, while supporting data residency requirements and integrating with adjacent AWS services like Amazon SageMaker.
