Boston-area GenomeQuest makes a bid to move genome search and analysis tools into the cloud, in competition with Seattle-based Geospiza, which is running on the Amazon cloud computing platform. Geospiza and Life Tech have already announced a partnership in this space, so there’s a good chance we’ll see competition heating up just as we did when Microsoft brought Azure to the marketplace competing with Amazon and Google. Could be fun!
