HiFi data combine long read lengths (typically 15–25 kb) with Q30+ accuracy, they can be used directly in many standard bioinformatics workflows: De novo genome assembly – Produces highly contiguous assemblies with…
Outputs are delivered in standardized BAM format, ready for genome assembly, variant detection, phasing, and other downstream analyses.
SMRT Link Cloud is designed with strong data security and privacy protections. While it is not currently certified as GDPR or HIPAA compliant, PacBio does not collect or store biological…
PacBio provides flexible options for integrating with your Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). Both SMRT Link and SMRT Link Cloud offer robust APIs that enable programmatic access, making automated LIMS…
Our Certified Service Providers (CSPs) deliver high-quality sequencing services using PacBio technology around the world. While PacBio doesn’t perform sequencing directly, you can easily find a CSP near you to…
You can transfer new run designs between SMRT Link Cloud and a local SMRT Link server using run design CSV files. Historical records of sequencing runs, however, cannot be synced…
Each SMRT Link Cloud user and connected instrument is assigned to a single workspace to ensure secure and consistent data management. Workspace assignments can be updated if your access needs…
Yes, users can use both SMRT Link Cloud and a local SMRT Link server simultaneously to manage their fleet of instruments. However, please note that each sequencing instrument can only…
Currently, SMRT Link Cloud does not include capabilities for running the skera data utilitiy for read segmentation of Kinnex libraries. SMRT Link Cloud users who need to run this utility…
(Similar to what is available for SMRT Link On-Prem (i.e. demultiplexing, HiFi mapping, etc?) A Bring Your Own Cloud Compute (BYOC) option for SMRT Link Cloud is planned for release…
SMRT Link Cloud is designed so that sequencing data remains entirely under the user’s control. Because PacBio does not handle or store sequencing data, we do not sign Business Associate…
SMRT Link Cloud securely stores key metadata to help you manage and monitor your sequencing runs, while giving you full control over your sequencing data and results. Data stored in…
Transfer schemes can be configured from SMRT Link Cloud to set up direct-to-cloud transfers between your sequencing instrument and a cloud storage system. SMRT Link supports transfers to Amazon S3,…
