Speed up Applications With Best-in-Class Tools

Use accelerated tooling for industry-standard germline, somatic, and RNA analysis.

Experience 100X Faster Performance

Experience up to 107X speedups over CPU-only solutions, reducing computing costs by up to 60 percent.

Improve Accuracy in Sequencing Analysis

Fine-tune or retrain DeepVariant in Parabricks for improved variant calling.

Take Advantage of Flexible Workflows

Create customized workflows by configuring tools in Workflow Description Language (WDL) and NextFlow.

Accelerate Genomic Analysis From End to End

Use Industry-Standard Tools

NVIDIA Parabricks provides GPU-accelerated versions of tools used every day by computational biologists and bioinformaticians—enabling significantly faster runtimes, workflow scalability, and lower compute costs.

The toolkit includes full compatibility with workflow languages and managers (WDL, NextFlow) to easily intertwine GPU- and CPU-powered tasks, as well as support for easy cloud deployment (AWS, GCP, Oracle, Microsoft Azure, LifeBit, Terra, FormBio, and DNAnexus).

FASTQ to Binary Alignment Map (BAM) to VCF

Experience Unmatched Performance

From FastQ to Variant Call Format (VCF), NVIDIA Parabricks accelerates runtimes across a series of hardware configurations with NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPUs. Genomic researchers can experience acceleration across every step of their analysis workflows, from alignment to sorting to variant calling. When more GPUs are used, a near-linear scaling in compute time is observed compared to CPU-only systems, allowing up to 107X acceleration.

Analyze a Whole Human Genome at 30X Coverage in Less Than 30 Minutes

NVIDIA runtimes were achieved on an NVIDIA DGX™ A100 320GB system. All analyses were run on HG002 Genome In A Bottle (GIAB NIST) sequenced to 30X coverage, with variant calls made with GATKv4.1.0 HaplotypeCaller.
