Google Cloud/Review

Review

Review in preparation for interview:

• Components of workflow and open source tools for each step
• Highlight each step with a data engineering repository
• Individual services offered on the cloud - know the idea behind, e.g., why so many database solutions
• What specific challenges, software, workflows do genomics researchers face/use?
