Provider: nextflow-io
Claimed: 14 Sep 2025 19:57:53 (UTC)
Description: The nf-amazon plugin integrates Nextflow with AWS services, providing AWS Batch as a compute executor, S3 as a file system, and Fusion for high-performance data operations. It solves the problem of running scalable bioinformatics workflows on AWS cloud infrastructure without managing compute resources directly. Bioinformaticians and data scientists using Nextflow would use this plugin to seamlessly execute containerized pipelines on AWS.

Summary

The Amazon Web Services (AWS) plugin provides support for AWS, including AWS Batch as a compute executor, S3 as a file system, and Fusion file system for high-performance data operations.

Get Started

To use this plugin, add it to your nextflow.config:

plugins {
    id 'nf-amazon'
}

Configure your AWS credentials using environment variables, AWS CLI profiles, or IAM roles. Then set up the executor and work directory:

process.executor = 'awsbatch'
process.queue = '<YOUR BATCH QUEUE>'
workDir = 's3://<YOUR BUCKET>/work'

aws {
    region = 'us-east-1'
    batch {
        cliPath = '/home/ec2-user/miniconda/bin/aws'
    }
}

Examples

Basic AWS Batch configuration

plugins {
    id 'nf-amazon'
}

process.executor = 'awsbatch'
process.queue = 'my-batch-queue'
workDir = 's3://my-bucket/work'

aws {
    region = 'eu-west-1'
    batch {
        cliPath = '/home/ec2-user/miniconda/bin/aws'
        jobRole = 'arn:aws:iam::123456789:role/MyBatchJobRole'
    }
}

Using Fusion file system

fusion {
    enabled = true
}

wave {
    enabled = true
}

process.executor = 'awsbatch'
workDir = 's3://my-bucket/work'

S3 storage options

aws {
    client {
        maxConnections = 20
        connectionTimeout = 10000
        storageEncryption = 'AES256'
    }
    region = 'us-east-1'
}
