1. Introduction¶

1.1. File Access (Traditional Way)¶

1.2. File Access (with BaseMount)¶

1.4. What is BaseMount?¶

BaseMount is a machanisum that enables access to your basespace storage as a Linux file system.

1.5. Advantages of the BaseMount?¶

Have access to your Projects, Runs, and App results as your local files.
Can run local apps on basespace data without downloading data to your local computer.
Can save your local storage space.:

“Although BaseMount does facilitate file download, we would recommend that since BaseMount allows convenient, fast, cached access to your BaseSpace metadata and files, you may find that many operations can be carried out without the need to download locally. Duringour testing, we have used BaseMount to grep through fastq files, extract blocks of reads from bam files and even use IGV on the bam files directly all without downloading files locally. This can be more convenient than including a download step and saves on the overheads of local storage.” -Illumina
