Hence, these strategic initiatives by the market players may be expected to as an opportunity that is expected to drive market growth.

Restraints/Challenges

• Difficulty in Clinical Bioinformatics Analysis

The largely untapped potential of big data analytics is a feed buzz that has been exacerbated by the production of many next-generation data sets that seek to answer long-standing questions about the biology of human diseases. Although these approaches are likely to be a powerful means of unveiling new biological insights, several significant challenges currently hinder efforts to harness the power of big data. Typical challenges include the effective assessment of analytical software tools, the speeding up of the overall process using hybrid parallel computing (HPC) parallelization and acceleration technology, the advancement of automation strategies, data storage alternatives, and, finally, the development of new methods for the full utilization of results across multiple experimental conditions.

• Challenges to Implementing Bioinformatics Technology in The Clinical Labs

Bioinformatics technologies can perform massively complicated biological data analysis. This capacity simultaneously facilitates the computational tools for the organization and analysis of biological data, which helps improve diagnostic screening. The application of these powerful technologies in a clinical laboratory poses a challenge because of the data's scope, quantity and medico-technical consequences.

Various challenges of implementing next-generation sequencing in the clinical laboratory are as follows-

• One of the first areas where problems can creep in is often the most overlooked: "sample quality". Although platforms are often tested and compared using highly curated samples (such as the reference material from the Genome in a Bottle Consortium), real-world samples often present much more of a challenge and hence act as a challenge for the rise in demand
• High turn-around time is also a major challenge for the instruments working in this market
