Abstract

A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes identifying genomic data within a system, dividing the genomic data into a plurality of partitions, creating a plurality of groups of different data types within each of the plurality of partitions, independently compressing, within each of the plurality of partitions, each of the plurality of groups of different data types to create a plurality of independently compressed partitions, validating each of the plurality of independently compressed partitions to create a plurality of validated independently compressed partitions, and saving the plurality of validated independently compressed partitions within the system.
