NEW YORK, May 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Cloud Computing in Life Sciences R&D Report

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0192381/Cloud-Computing-in-Life-Sciences-RD-Report.html

The pharmaceutical outsourcing trend and economic restrictions, coupled with the increasing attractiveness of cloud computing offerings, have created a highly dynamic yet nascent market. Included in this report:

• Technological aspects of cloud computing and activities of companies that are active in the field
• Current and emerging applications of cloud computing, with special emphasis on next-generation sequencing and its resultant data
• Market aspects of cloud computing, including competition among providers and user requirements
• Results and analysis from an extensive survey of bioinformatics people concerning their practices and views
• Expert interviews
• General observations, conclusions and possible future trends

Cloud computing is rapidly growing in importance as life science R&D organizations are deluged with data from multiple sources. Simultaneously, demand for computationally complex modeling and simulation studies continues to rise dramatically. Limited funding and budgets make it difficult for many organizations to build the infrastructure necessary to keep pace with these challenges. Cloud computing appears for many as a promising alternative to in-house expansion. The intersection of the outsourcing trend and economic restrictions with the increasing attractiveness of cloud computing offerings has created a highly dynamic, yet nascent, market.
