Data Storage Requirements are Exploding
The primary driver of stored data growth in the coming decade will be newly-archived and re-archived data. Having timely access to this archival data will only become more mission critical over time.
When storing current and coming archival data, the primary concern is data security, durability, and low cost of storage - both the cost of storage and the cost to manage it for decades. For all categories, SSDs and HDDs are becoming increasingly prohibitive.
Folio Unleashes Data to Advance the National Defense
Folio Photonic's DataFilm media is a high-capacity, long-lived, and low-cost data storage solution. Use of Folio's media removes limitations on what can be both stored and accessed across an organization.
Secure
Encryption, air gap and WORM to prevent unauthorized access
Durable
Impervious to EMPs, salt water, high temps and altitudes
Long-Lasting
+100 year media life and and infinite backwards compatibility
Efficient
Requires zero power or climate control for written data storage
Industry-Transforming Technology
Folio Photonics’ DataFilm-based media utilize an extruded multi-layer photonic film embedded with photo-sensitive fluorophores, chromophores, or quantum dots to transcend traditional optical layering limitations.
This novel storage medium enables the creation of multi-TB discs, cylinders, and tapes with 100+ year lifespans and the lowest $/TB cost.
Domestically Produced
Folio Photonics is wholly owned by domestic shareholders. DataFilm is the only legacy storage medium entirely developed and manufactured in the United States.
In Brief
Folio Photonics, Inc. was founded as a spin off from the Case Western Reserve University for Layered Polymeric Systems, a National Science Foundation funded Science and Technology Center. Folio Photonics is currently headquartered in Solon Ohio with a team of 14 scientists and engineers specializing in digital optical disc storage technology.
