The HIVE utilizes the Dragen Appliance Software. The Illumina DRAGEN Appliance is a computer that uses field-gate programmable array (FPGA) based technology to provide hardware acceleration for genomics analysis, including BCL conversion, mapping, alignment, sorting, duplicate marking, and haplotype variant calling. Processing a human genome with 30x coverage takes about 25 minutes as compared to overnight on a traditional system. The DRAGEN Bio-IT Platform software uses the FPGA acceleration to rapidly detect variants with high sensitivity and specificity, and to analyze data from whole genomes, whole exomes, targeted panels, germline and somatic datasets, and RNA sequencing.
