There is a huge demand for the type of capacity enabled by NANOCUBIC from customers in fields such as life sciences and digital media-industries that are overwhelmed by the petabytes of data (a petabyte is equivalent to 20 million four-drawer filing cabinets full of text) that digital images create. Just one example of an industry that is seeing remarkable information growth is medical imaging. The IT opportunity in this industry alone is estimated at $5B -$10B, growing annually at 15 percent CAGR (Frost & Sullivan).

From ATOMM to NANOCUBIC, Fujifilm is enabling all types of business applications through tape technology-today you'll find tape just about anywhere you find information stored electronically. Bank teller transactions are recorded on tape to provide a permanent record for auditors; the U.S. Census Bureau stores its data on tape; insurance companies store policyholder data on tape; NASA stores space flight data on tape… even U.S. Social Security data is stored on tape.

NANOCUBIC technology will make unprecedented advances in all of these areas, as well as in Disaster Recovery implementations-a very hot topic right now. More and more companies today are seeing the need to protect business critical data and to implement disaster recovery solutions. Seventy percent of companies go out of business after a major data loss (Source: DTI). Fujifilm is addressing this need. Tape is the media of choice for backing up data in case of system failures, and NANOCUBIC technology will make this much more feasible and easily deployable for businesses of all sizes.
