ENZYMATIC DNA DATA STORAGE Background The creation of new data has been doubling every 2-3 years with 90% of all data being generated in the last 3 years. However, 60-80% of this is categorised as ‘cold data’ - i.e. information that is rarely accessed, used, or modified, yet must be retained for compliance, legal, or historical purposes. This exponential increase also demands a system for data storage in the form of large-scale data centres that come with a plethora of environmental problems and high resource consumption, as well as a limitation in maintaining the longevity of the storage output.
