Analytic Pipeline Handler

The analytic pipeline handler launches the analysis pipeline for aneuploidy detection. The pipeline processes one sequencing run at a time at an average duration of less than 5 hours per pool. If the analysis fails to process the pool, or does not complete the analysis due to power failure or timeout, the Analytic Pipeline Handler automatically requeues the run. If processing the pool fails consecutively three times, the Analytic Pipeline Handler tags the run as failed and generates an error message.

A successful analysis run triggers the NIPT report generation. For more information, refer to NIPT Report.
