The long-term retention and backup requirements of many organizations continue to grow as their data estate grows. The long-term preservation market provides an opportunity for a higher durability service to store copies of high value digital assets in as many places, with as many types of media as possible, to eliminate the chance of data loss. The ability to store large volumes of such “long-term preservation” data, largely depends on enabling storage technologies that are lowest cost than any storage technology that exists today, such that cost to store data is near zero. The industry has been investing in several new technologies and we wanted to bring forth Project Silica which is one such technology that addresses the market need for long-term preservation. Project Silica is an optical storage technology with WORM media, that enables low cost, is EMF-Proof, durable for decades, is sustainable, provides true airgap and low power consumption. We are looking for collaboration with industry partners to bring this technology to fruition.

Long Term Preservation and Archive Storage
Mon Sep 18 | 3:35pm - 4:25pm
DNA lacks many key attributes found in other traditional storage media types including locality and addressability.
Users of DNA as a digital data storage medium must have confidence that they can reliably recover their stored data, and to understand the competing capabilities and claims of codecs, readers, writ
Synthetic DNA-based data storage has been on the rise as a candidate for Data Storage due to its longer shelf life and higher data density.

Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) as a storage medium with high density and long-term preservation properties can satisfy the requirement of archival storage for rapidly increased digital volume.
A new error correction code for DNA data storage is presented.
There are several well-known advantages of using synthetic DNA for cold-data storage, such as higher density, reduced energy consumption, and durability compared with the standard storage mediums u
The demand for data storage continues to grow exponentially with the overall data storage temperature cooling down with most data becoming cold after one month and subsequently infrequently accesse
