SubsidieMeestersDNA Microfactory for Autonomous Archiving
DNAMIC aims to develop an autonomous, low-energy DNA microfactory for end-to-end data archiving, ensuring long-term storage compliance and disaster recovery through innovative encoding schemes.
Projectdetails
Introduction
We live in a society that produces and requires more and more data every year. It has become apparent that our current data storage strategies are not adequate to meet this increasing demand. The quest for robust, high-density, sustainable, and economically viable data storage solutions has highlighted the enormous potential and suitability of DNA data storage.
Challenges in Current Solutions
However, to date, none of the solutions have considered a comprehensive vision of anchoring this technology in standardised archival frameworks that will support long-term storage. Besides, most DNA data storage applications are limited to specialist laboratories due to complex (and expensive) protocols.
Project Overview
Our project entitled DNAMIC (DNA Microfactory for Autonomous Archiving) proposes an autonomous solution based around a low energy consumption microfactory that will be developed for end-to-end DNA data archiving, including:
- Encoding
- Decoding
- Synthesis
- Storage
- Quality control
- Sequencing
The microfactory is interoperable and future-proof thanks to technology blocks that can be easily modified or replaced.
Compliance and Innovation
Our solution will be compliant with the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) reference model (ISO 14721). To enable the implementation of disaster recovery strategies, which are critical for long-term storage, we propose a novel dual-level encoding scheme.
Benefits of the Dual-Level Encoding Scheme
This approach allows the development of self-contained data that includes:
- Easily changeable metadata
- Unalterable data
