BaseSpace is the first cloud environment directly integrated into Illumina industry-leading sequencing platform. It allows sequencing labs easily and securely analyze, archive, and share sequencing data.

Now SPAdes assembler is integrated into the platform and can be used as a one-button solution for de novo assembly of small genomes. The output includes assembly quality statistics provided by QUAST.
