Brief History of Holographic Storage ² 1948 Dennis Gabor invented Holography ² 1963 – van Heerden postulated that holography
could be used to store data ² 1963 – 2014 (51 years!)
² ‘88-’98 – IBM ² ’91-’93 – Tamarack ² ’94-’99 – Siros ² ‘94-’00 – Bell Labs ² ‘00-’10 – InPhase ² ’06-Present – Hitachi ² ’12-Present – Akonia ² Others: Thompson CSF, NEC, 3M, Panasonic, Sony, LG,
Universities all around the world
So Why Now?

The IDC predicts that in 2020 the world will have over 40,000 Exabytes of stored data. "A large portion of this data is going to be warm to cold data, and we need something better than tape and disk to store it,"
- Frank Frankovsky, VP of Facebook’s hardware design and supply chain operations, January 2014
… and necessity is the mother of invention
Reason #1: There is a Need…

The Results Are Showing…
à 500 TB per day
Just a sampling of things to come
à 144K hrs (86 TB) per day
à Storing over 1 Exabyte (1 million TB)

Reason #2: A Confluence of Technology has Occurred
Blue Diodes/LEDs Micro Displays
CMOS cameras
Akonia’s Photopolymer media
Electronics/FPGA
... The rest is packaging (Not simple, but very doable)

Why Bother with Holographic Data Storage
§ Cold/Warm Storage is approximately 50% of storage requirements
§ Inexpensive – Uses Polymer Media § Random Access – Unlike Tape § Environmentally robust § Low Energy Cost - compared to magnetic disk
• Data Centers predicted to use 15% of world’s energy by 2025
§ Technology capable of 500Terabytes on a single disk • Equivalent of 20,000 BluRay Disks
Page 13 How does holographic look in 2018…
Tape • IBM, HP, Quantum, Oracle • 6TB/tape • $10/TB media cost • 180MB/s Transfer Rate
BDXL • Sony, Panasonic, Hitachi, (Facebook) • 3.6TB/Magazine (300GB/disk) • $400/TB media cost in 2014 • 20MB/s Transfer Rate
Akonia’s 1st Generation Holographic Storage Device • 25TB/Magazine (2.5TB/card) • $8/TB media cost in 2018 • 200MB/s Transfer Rate
Page 14 Akonia’s New Developments
Capacity: Up to 16TB/Disk by 2020 § 2018: 2-4TB/disk -> Dynamic Aperture1, Homodyne2
1.) Mark Ayres: ODS Talk – Tuesday 4pm 2.) Adam Urness: ODS Talk – Tuesday 5:15pm
§ 2020: 8-16TB/disk -> Quadrature Homodyne + Akonia Proprietary Advancements* *To be revealed in 2015
Media ü DRED’s: 6x Improvement in Dynamic Range (M#)
Transfer Rate • >200MB/s transfer rate … but how?
Page 15
Let’s Talk Transfer Rate?
Page 16 Improving Write Transfer Rate by 12x
Akonia’s Initial Transfer Rate Target: 200MB/s
Page 17 Improving Write Transfer Rate to 255MB/s
4 Main Improvements: 1. 7x More Pixels – 10MPixel SLM 2. 7x Faster Galvos – Small Mirror size 3. 2x More laser power – 300mW available 4. 4x More Cure Power – Use LEDs
Page 18 Akonia’s Holographic Disk Library System
(Initial Estimated Specifications)
• 6 Petabytes Per Libary • Storage life >50 years with wide temp. range • 5-10 seconds average access time • 200 MBytes/sec transfer rate (max)

Google Storage
“Since the beginning of time until 2003 humans generated 5 Billion GigaBytes worth of data. Today, we generate that amount of data every two days. Next year we will generate that amount of data every 10 minutes.”
Jan. 10, 2013 Stuart Miniman
