Genomics data volume and velocity have increased dramatically, rendering on-premise storage insufficient and demanding specialized software tools to manage data in the cloud. Score addresses this by facilitating the transfer and storage of genomics data to and from a cloud network.
Score is a core component within the Overture research software ecosystem. Overture is a toolkit of modular software components made to build into scalable genomics data management systems. See our related products for more information on what Overture can offer.
