Ceramic Nano Memory - Data Storage for the Yottabyte Era

Explore a groundbreaking 51-minute conference presentation from the Storage Developer Conference 2023 that introduces revolutionary ceramic nano memory technology for data storage. Discover how inorganic nano layers using ceramics, just 50-100 atoms thick, can store information protected against most data storage media threats. Learn about the technology's impressive scaling capabilities, from initial 100 nm to 3 nm bit sizes, achieving areal densities from GB/cm² to TB/cm². Understand the volumetric data density scaling potential using substrate thickness variations and the implementation of laser or particle beam structuring for data matrices. Gain insights into how datacenter rack storage densities could evolve from 10 PB systems to 100 PB using CeraMemory cartridges (2025-30) and reach 1 EB using CeraTape (2030-2035). Examine the technology's remarkable features including GB/s class write and read speeds, extreme resilience to EMP and radiation, operational capability in temperatures from -273°C to 600°C, and superior sustainability through full media recyclability and low power consumption. Presented by Christian Pflaum from Cerabyte, this talk demonstrates how ceramic nano memory technology could revolutionize data storage for the approaching Yottabyte era.
