Deploying a variant analysis pipeline with Airflow

Here, we will develop a mini variant analysis pipeline with Airflow. The objective here is not to get the scientific part right—we cover that in other chapters—but to see how to create components with Airflow. Our mini-pipeline will download HapMap data, sub-sample at 1% and 10%, do a simple PCA, and draw it.
