MemVerge delivers big genomic sequencing speed boost, with a little help from Optane
By Chris Mellor
March 9, 2021

MemVerge has announced its BigMemory Optane-boosted DRAM system delivered a 25X increase in genomic sequencing speed at Analytical BioSciences.

Analytical BioSciences (ABio) is a single cell genomics company focusing on accelerating the development of therapeutics with faster sequencing. Genomic sequencing is used to identify virus strains such as SARS-CoV-2 variants, and computing a single-cell RNA sequence can take many hours.

The process is compute-intensive and entails many stages. For instance, large matrices need to fit in the server memory; intermediate stage results are saved and then reloaded for other stages. This introduces storage and recovery bottlenecks that are exacerbated by stage repetition for parameter tuning. However, overall execution time drops by more than half when Optane Persistent Memory is used to increase overall memory capacity.
