AWSBatchJobsParam: AWSBatchJobsParam function to start an AWS EC2-instance...

In Bioconductor/AWSParallel: AWS facilities for parallel evaluation

Description

This function starts a cluster of AWS EC2-instances to allow parallel computation of R objects using BatchJobs on SGE, and works with BiocParallel, to allow computation with R/Bioconductor objects.

Usage

AWSBatchJobsParam(workers = NULL,
  starclusterConfigPath = .STARCLUSTER_CONFIG_PATH,
  startclusterClusterId = "smallcluster", awsInstanceType = NA_character_,
  awsSubnet = NA_character_, awsAmiId = NA_character_,
  awsSshKeyPair = NA_character_, awsCredentialsPath = "~/.aws/credentials",
  awsProfile = "default", ...)

Arguments

workers	Numeric, number of workers to launch in the cluster
awsInstanceType	character, Type of AWS EC2-instance, eg. t2.micro
awsSubnet	character, AWS EC2-instance subnet, within a certain VPC
awsAmiId	character, AMI(amazon machine image) ID for the Bioconductor-release version
awsSshKeyPair	character, SSH key pair, to associate with your AWS EC2-instance
awsCredentialsPath	character, Path to AWS credentials, default value is '~/.aws/credentials'
awsProfile	character, indicates what profile to use while using AWS credentials
...	Additional arguments, used to initialize BatchJobsParam.
verbose	logical, gives a verbose output of SSH connection attempt, default is FALSE.

Value

AWSBatchJobsparam object
