Seqera Compute​

Seqera Compute is now in public preview. Seqera Compute is a fully managed, optimized compute environment which eliminates infrastructure complexity by automating environment setup, resource provisioning, scaling, and optimization.

Platform interface updates​

Pipeline run details​

The pipeline run details page has been refreshed and includes improvements such as:

• Clear, dynamic view of pipeline execution in real time via a progress bar.
• A dedicated Run info tab with a centralized view of run metadata and status details.
• Improved navigation tabs for Tasks, Logs, Metrics, and Containers.

New Seqera Platform sidebar​

The Platform top navigation has been replaced with a sidebar for improved navigation.

AWS Cloud compute environment​

The new AWS Cloud compute environment supports faster startup time, simplified configuration, and fewer AWS dependencies. Using this compute environment, Studios can now be launched on Spot instances. The AWS Cloud compute environment is best suited to run Studios and small to medium-sized pipelines. It offers more predictable compute pricing, given the fixed instance type. It spins up a standalone EC2 instance and executes a Nextflow pipeline or Studio session with a local executor on the EC2 machine. At the end of the execution, the instance is terminated.

API documentation improvements​

The Seqera Platform API documentation has been updated. Featuring overview pages with parameter and request body tables, categorized by Platform entity (compute environments, pipelines, etc.), the documentation now provides easier reference and detailed request examples.

Other new features and improvements​

• Fusion
  • Add Fusion snapshots to AWS Batch.
  • Enable DRAINING status for Spot instance reclamation. When an instance is in DRAINING status, no new task can be scheduled on it. See Configuring Amazon ECS Linux container instances to receive Spot Instance notices for more information.
  • AWS Cloud compute environment defaults to the public Seqera AMI if no AMI ID is specified during compute environment creation.
• Studios
  • Add Spot option for AWS Cloud compute environment.
• Support markdown rendering for Nextflow object field help_text and description properties.

  • Add Fusion Snapshots support in AWS Batch compute environments, enabling Fusion to automatically restore jobs interrupted by AWS Spot instance reclamation. See Fusion Snapshots for more information.

Bug fixes​

• Fix container table pagination.
• Make task-level containers tab visible only when containers are available.
• Fix a launch form issue with eager parameter keyword interpolation.
