AWS HealthOmics now supports ephemeral storage for private workflows

calendar_today June 23, 2026 person aws@amazon.com domain amazon-q

AWS HealthOmics adds ephemeral storage for private workflows, giving bioinformatics workloads dedicated scratch space that delivers more consistent run performance and lower costs. Each workflow task now receives a dedicated local volume mounted at /tmp, and workflows that generate significant scratch data, such as genomic sequence alignment, BAM sorting, and variant calling, can experience faster run times. AWS HealthOmics is a HIPAA-eligible service that helps healthcare and life sciences customers accelerate scientific breakthroughs with fully managed bioinformatics workflows.
