Data storage has evolved since the IBM punch card in 1928. Datastickies, DNA storage and helium drives are just some of the possibilities for the future of data storage.
Multi-Cloud Storage
Researchers at IBM are working on a new technology that they like to call "the cloud-of-clouds." They claim to have developed a service that allows you to move data between multiple cloud platforms in real time.
The multi-cloud distribution storage system links public and private cloud services and is intended to help avoid service outages from the separate providers.
