Modernizing Research HPC Authentication: Bridging Enterprise Identity and AWS ParallelCluster
Modern research institutions often hit a wall when modernizing access to high-performance computing environments. The compute infrastructure is already in place. Enterprise identity systems are already established. The challenge is enabling those systems to work together securely without creating friction for researchers or compromising institutional security requirements. BioTeam recently helped a major federal research institution […]
Bioinformatics at Scale: Building Computational Autonomy Across a Federal Research Institution
Overview As research teams increasingly rely on computational methods to analyze complex experimental data, many scientists face barriers to independently using bioinformatics tools and modern analytical workflows. A leading federal research institution sought to strengthen internal capability by improving researchers’ access to practical training, standardized workflows, and ongoing computational guidance. BioTeam partnered with the institution […]
