Schematic illustration of the computational strategy utilized for the cloud-based eQTL analysis. One hundred virtual server instances are provisioned using a web-based cloud control dashboard. One of the virtual server instances served as a data distribution and job control server. Upon initialization, the compute nodes would request a subset partition of eQTL comparisons and insert timestamp entries into a job accounting database upon initiation and completion of the eQTL analysis subset it was administered.
