Saied, you must have meant "biometrics".

some people use amazon (for a fee), if its plant bioinformatics there is a free service called iPlant that is pretty useful.

the link for iPlant is http://www.iplantcollaborative.org/

This might be of interest:

I am working with an HPC cloud that was specifically set up for HPC Bioinformatics work.

http://www.nimbix.net/bioinformatics/

There is a group of us that are building FPGA-based accelerators for bioinformatics work and Nimbix.net is tailored to leveraging these hardware acceleration platforms.

I built several high performance solutions for high throughput sequencing that connects NGS instruments located in a lab to the Nimbix.net cloud.

There are a number of public AMI that are built for genomics, proteomics and general bioinformatics. You can find them at http://www.tnrglobal.com/blog/2009/10/amis-for-bioinformatics-on-aws/. You pay Amazon for the time that they are running. Amazon also gives some grants of credit for use to some academic institutions.

Amazon EC2 and Cloudbroker are cloud computing platforms extensively used for bioinformatics applications

I am not sure exactly what do you mean by "facility" . Do you need specific facilities rather that high performance computing? Cloud just provide you infrastructure, platform and software based on "pay as you use" principle. So whatever is the computational task, you will are able to utilize cloud services on payment. Please narrate your question if you need further guidance.

This response is modified upon Matej comment that corrected me. Thanks Matej

What kind of calculations you perform? mathematical models? in series? in parallel? that type of project (in time) want to pursue?

Several National Grid Infrastructuresprovide cloud services (mostly IaaS) for both individual researchers/groups and for national and international research collaborations. They are working with various disciplines, including bioinformatics. Further info on this page: https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Fedcloud-tf:Testbed

Saied, you must have meant "biometrics".

The International Conference on Research Infrastructures - ICRI 2012 (http://www.ereg.me/ehome/31679/50320) , featured a posters session with a number of research infrastructures which can support bioinformatics research such as Elixir, BBMRI, Euro-BioImaging, Euro-Virus, Infrafrontier, Instruct, WeNMR, and Venus-C. Depends what you want to do really.

Maybe Galaxy project will be good for you. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_(computational_biology)

Cloud computing is exactly useful for bioinformatics modelling & applications. Http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/25/12/1475.full and amazon aws has large public dataset (http://aws.amazon.com/publicdatasets/)

Amazon EMR (Elastic Map Reduce) is one such facility

Can u highlight ur requirements whether it is infrastructure or platform or softwares

Many grid computing facilities also supports bioinformatics domain...One such facility is Indian national grid GARUDA with 70TF computational facilities built by CDAC, Govt of India.

If you need any further details you can send me your mailid or You can refer to its website www.garudaindia.in

let me know what sort of resources you need. We have cloud computing testbed, we can help you with your needs and its free
