Does anyone know of a good "how-to" on setting up an Amazon instance for sequence analysis? IN an ideal world, this would not be targeted at the uber-expert user, more at someone with middling unix skills, and some experience of common tools (e.g. bowtie, MAQ, samtools, GATK).
Also-can someone point me to a list of the available resources (e.g. reference sequences, Hapmap data, RNA-seq sets) that can be accessed through such an instance. Conversely, what would you recommend should be loaded and stored "locally"?
I have already investigated DNAnexus, Galaxy and geschicten, each of which has a lot to offer, bu this would be more for smaller jobs that require non-routine use and custom scripting of standard tools.
