On the whole if you are the one running the hardware it might not come cheap and you will have retention policies that data needs to be deleted. Data storage is not an easy matter although everyone is trying to convince you it is (e.g. Cloud)

it is sure more expensive when you lose data you actually need. And it might be cheaper keeping data in the cloud as they also charge you if you repatriate or delete before a specific time frame.

Nutanix und Pure Storage: HCI trifft Flash | Computer Weekly
Die Compute-Ressourcen von Nutanix und die Speicherfunktionalität von Pure Storage stellen eine disaggregierte Infrastruktur bereit, die ab Q4 verfügbar ist.
Nutanix und Pure Storage schlagen einen gemeinsamen Weg mit einer integrierten Lösung ein, die eine entkoppelte Architektur aufweist und unabhängige Skalierung von Compute und Storage ermöglicht. @nutanixsolutions.bsky.social : www.computerweekly.com/de/news/3666...

exactly my thinking. And yes, sigh...

I also doubt the savings. And the mentioning of a 70 years old technology is misleading. I am dead sure the tapes were not 70 years old, they just refer to the technology in general.

DNA storage is far away from being ready for production. More promising is ceramic storage or glass like Cerabyte and Silica by Microsoft.

Kind of doesn't make sense. If they were to put it on a better and faster accessible storage medium they would have never saved a dime.

I truly hope not but am thinking the same thing. They would most definitely be stored on TAPE in the cloud which will cost them more long-term. This is painful.

that's what I am fearing as well because any other option (optical storage, HDDs etc.) is just unthinkable. His math will not work out with a cloud service at least not long-term.

Actually, there companies that look into this (well, something similar) and are close to actual products, e.g. Cerabyte. The use ultra thin glas sheets, cover it with a ceramic layer and write data onto that. Recyclable and nearly indestructible and easy to read. Also check on MoM (Memory of Mankind

Mit physischem und virtuellem Memory die Leistung optimieren | Computer Weekly
Virtueller Arbeitsspeicher abstrahiert die wirkliche Memory-Größe und zeigt Anwendungen mehr an, als physisch vorhanden ist. Dies optimiert die Performance.
Anwender, die bei einem Performance-Engpass nicht gleich in neues Memory investieren möchten (oder können), haben die Möglichkeit, virtuelles Memory einzurichten. Lesen Sie hier, wie dies umgesetzt wird und was das fürs System bedeutet: www.computerweekly.com/de/feature/M...
