In recent months, CMI began redirecting many of its efforts to better understand how the human microbiome is involved in the development and severity of COVID-19.
Researchers have since been evaluating samples from patients worldwide to find biological and epidemiological discoveries about the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
CMI director Rob Knight also noted the importance of a reliable HPC technology solution as the Center steps up its groundbreaking efforts to study the RNA microbiome, which is especially relevant because COVID-19 is an RNA virus.
CMI has been working with Panasas since 2015, when they were looking to create an HPC storage infrastructure that could deliver consistently high performance, speed data exploration and discovery, and simplify storage management for administrators.
The CMI team appreciates technology solutions that don't distract researchers from the scientific problems they aspire to solve. By freeing researchers from worries about storage, CMI can accelerate the adoption of advanced scientific technologies.
