Hi Juan Gabriel,

You have many choices available to you when it comes to running tasks 
either using an on-prem cluster or cloud-based resources.

As Riccardo points out, we have documented the "how-to" get started using 
Elasticluster and Grid Engine because many existing bioinformatics scripts 
have been written for Grid Engine and many people have experience with it 
at their own institution.

For development of new pipelines for a cloud environment such as Google 
Cloud, you have newer choices, such as:

* The Broad Institute's workflow runner, Cromwell 
<https://github.com/broadinstitute/cromwell>, which supports the Google 
Pipelines API <https://cloud.google.com/genomics/v1alpha2/pipelines> as 
well as cluster managers like Grid Engine
* dsub <https://github.com/googlegenomics/dsub>, a simple command-line tool 
that today supports running tasks using the Google Pipelines API and is 
intended to support other providers in the future 

Hope that helps,

-Matt
