    <p>Hi Chip,</p>
    <p>my name is Laura and I work in the Centro Nacional de
      Biotecnología in Madrid, where we develop the software Scipion.</p>
    <p>We have explored and use cryo-EM processing in the cloud for many
      years already, we have some info <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://scipion-em.github.io/docs/release-3.0.0/docs/developer/scipion-on-the-cloud.html__;!!Mih3wA!ARQ_pdLIz3yHTBfQnqy6MQVRQehsrMsaQFt_7kF24VFusw0xNfbVYLgNiKMNolDIhCD39fEtAt1qiGArgIJOgrM$">here</a>
      but I can tell you also what we have been doing.</p>
    <p>We have some AMIs with our software in AWS but we mainly use it
      for training cause it is really expensive to launch powerful
      hardware types to process cryo-EM and we only do it if we dont
      have our own resources. <br>
    </p>
    <p>What we sometimes use to process real data is the European Open
      Science Cloud (EOSC) resources cause we have some agreements with
      (OpenStack) sites in EU. We launch those virtual servers or
      clusters using the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.grycap.upv.es/im/index.php__;!!Mih3wA!ARQ_pdLIz3yHTBfQnqy6MQVRQehsrMsaQFt_7kF24VFusw0xNfbVYLgNiKMNolDIhCD39fEtAt1qiGArB4r-v5M$">Infrastructure
        Manager</a> that uses ansible/docker recipes/images to set them
      up.</p>
    <p>If you are interested we can discuss it or I can try to answer
      more specific questions related to instances, transfers and so on.</p>
    <p>best regards</p>

                <p class="MsoNormal">I wonder if anyone has experience
                  processing cryo-EM data in the cloud, specifically
                  using AWS infrastructure? There are a few online
                  resources describing this, listed below. I am hoping
                  to learn from others’ experiences, including
                  considerations and unexpected pitfalls.</p>
                <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
                <p class="MsoNormal">How does your choice of cloud
                  CPU/GPU instance compare with on-premises computer
                  hardware you may have access to? How do you transfer
                  raw movies from the microscope facility to your own
                  storage area in the cloud (direct network transfer,
                  first transfer to a disk array, etc.)?</p>
