DNA-Based Data Storage for Trade Archives—Feasibility Study
Introduction
Financial institutions maintain massive historical trade archives requiring expensive storage systems. DNA storage offers far greater density with century-scale data retention potential.
DNA Storage Technology and Mechanics
Trade records encode into DNA sequences retrievable through sequencing.
Feasibility and Practicality
DNA storage remains expensive and slow but offers theoretical advantages for cold storage archives.
Timeline and Development
DNA storage represents theoretical long-term archive solution awaiting cost and speed improvement.
Conclusion
DNA storage represents future long-term archive solution.
