Abstract
Many research projects in bioinformatics may be viewed as scientific workflows. Biologists often run multiple times the same workflow with different parameters in order to refine their data analysis. These executions generate a large volume of files with different formats, which need to be stored for future evaluations. New database models, like NoSQL systems, could be considered to deal with large volumes of data, particularly in distributed systems. This work presents a data replication impact assessment from the execution of scientific workflows for two NoSQL database management systems: Cassandra and MongoDB.
