The details of these tools are given below. Addition of extra tools and updating this image is explained in this part of the manual (click here). The available tools belong to the following packages:
To save user’s cost and to facilitate usage of database-dependent programs, we prepared snapshots of different databases. These snapshots are made available to the user free of charge through a simple user interface, to create EBS volumes and mount them to the cluster. Our snapshots currently include the sequence databases and pre-computed indexes of it to be used with the respective tools.

To facilitate the use of elastiHPC, we augmented the cloud machines with web-interface to
There is a tools reprosotary that allows the user to submit jobs for the pre-installed called ‘NUBIOS’, NUBIOS can be accessed on: ‘http://MAIN_NODE_DNS/NUBIOS‘
If the user wants to run a tool that doesn’t exist currently on the cluster, you can use our tool runner page ‘http://MAIN_NODE_DNS/runner‘ which allows you to fetch the tool binary, input files from local cluster or S3.
