The Library of Congress is currently executing a feasibility study in partnership with the University of Washington’s Molecular Information Systems Lab (MISL) to determine if/how DNA data storage fits into the Library’s current data storage ecosystem. Bringing perspective from the ongoing project, this presentation will bring a user-centric viewpoint to the potential large-scale commercialization of DNA data storage. The discussion will include topics such as critical enterprise customer requirements, thoughts on facilitating adoption of DNA data storage, and how, in its current state, DNA data storage fits into the current data storage environment. The goal being to challenge the community to heavily consider the next steps as we enter unprecedented times where data proliferation is outpacing storage production.
Presented by Vincent Coltellino
This is a presentation from the 2026 Storage and Computing with DNA Conference.
