The present disclosure provides a novel approach for shifting or distributing various information (e.g., protocols, analysis methods, sample preparation data, sequencing data, etc.) to a cloud-based network. For example, the techniques relate to a cloud computing environment (12) configured to receive this information from one or more individual sample preparation devices (38), sequencing devices (18), and/or computing systems. In turn, the cloud computing environment (12) may generate information for use in the cloud computing environment (12) and/or to provide the generated information to the devices to guide a genomic analysis workflow. Further, the cloud computing environment (12) may be used to facilitate the sharing of sample preparation protocols for use with generic sample preparation cartridges and/or monitoring the popularity of the sample preparation protocols. |
