DNA STORAGE REVOLUTION

Revolutionizing Data Storage with DNA Memory

At PEARCODE, we are developing a revolutionary DNA memory system for long-term digital data archiving. Our goal is to transform how cold data is stored. Unlike traditional storage systems, which are constrained by capacity, energy consumption, and longevity, DNA memory offers an ultra-dense, sustainable, and secure alternative.
UNMATCHED DATA DENSITY

A Million Times More Data, A Greener Future

Just one gram of DNA can store up to 215 petabytes of data, which is a million times more than conventional hard drives. Once completed, PEARCODE’s DNA memory will help data centers reduce their energy consumption by up to 30% over the next 10 years, significantly lowering operational costs. The shift to DNA storage will also contribute to a 20-25% reduction in carbon emissions, making it a key component in efforts to reduce the environmental footprint of data storage.
SUSTAINABLE COST EFFICIENCY

Reducing Power, Cooling, and Water with DNA Memory

Beyond energy savings, DNA storage eliminates the need for frequent hardware replacements and data migrations, processes that are both costly and time-consuming. Over a 20-year period, this could result in 50-70% cost savings for businesses managing large volumes of cold data. Furthermore, DNA memory requires no continuous power or cooling, in contrast to traditional data centers that consume vast amounts of water for cooling systems. By switching to DNA-based storage, companies can reduce their water usage and contribute to more sustainable data management practices.
FUTURE-PROOF SECURITY SOLUTION

A Secure, Future-Proof Solution for Long-Term Data Needs

PEARCODE’s unique approach is not only focused on the automation of DNA writing and reading but also on delivering a solution with unmatched storage capacity, energy efficiency, and security. Our deep-tech expertise, built over years of research, positions us to lead the shift towards sustainable data storage, offering a future-proof alternative for industries that require reliable, long-term storage solutions.
