Amazon Omics now supports direct upload to Omics storage and automatic variant data parsing

Today, Amazon Omics announces a new capability for direct data ingestion to Omics storage. Omics storage enables customers to store FASTQ, BAM, and CRAM files at a cost-effective price at scale. Previously, Omics had an asynchronous batch upload process for bulk loading of sequence readsets. This new capability adds a simple synchronous upload capability. The multi-part direct upload APIs will now allow customers to upload their data directly to the sequence stor­­e. This functionality allows customers to integrate existing processing pipelines and/or sequencers to directly write their outputs to a sequence store. Additionally, the transfer manager utility has been updated so that customers can directly upload large files with a single python command.
