Abstract
Genome sequence alignment is one of the basic procedure of genome sequencing analysis pipeline and also one of the most time-consuming parts. Including BigBWA, a number of tools were proposed to accelerate genome sequence alignment by parallelizing computation with Hadoop technologies. However, HDFS incurs considerable I/O overhead. In this research, we propose a new sequence alignment tool adopting Hadoop on Lustre. Based on BigBWA, we removed data transfer overhead caused by HDFS and parallelized whole I/O steps. Experimental result shows that our solution is five times faster than original BigBWA in a ten-node Lustre based Hadoop cluster.
