Changes to SRA Data Access on the Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

Sequence Read Archive (SRA) data available via the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) are migrating from multi-region to single region us-east-1. This migration is projected to be complete by May 2024. To minimize the impact of this change, we recommend updating your workflow to access SRA data in us-east-1 region as soon as conveniently possible. 

Please note this change does not impact SRA data access from Amazon Web Services (AWS) or NCBI servers

  1. Google strikes again! What was there original motto “Do no evil”? Well, they have certainly done much evil and created chaos to higher education in the USA with their false promise of “free data storage” for life for higher ed. I wonder how m8uch research will get lost and corrupted in the university space because of this toxic advert empire.
