Abstract : Abstract:- In the field of data storage, long-term digital preservation is a crucial concern. Due to their great capacity and low price, magnetic media-based solutions, such as tape and hard disk drive (HDD)-based archive systems, have long held a monopoly on the data archiving industry. The volume, velocity, and variety of data sets, which are quickly growing in the big data era, provide a number of problems to archive systems in a range of areas, including capacity, cost, performance, reliability, power consumption, and so on. With the resurgence of optical storage in recent years, large capacity optical media, like blu-ray discs (BDs) and holographic discs, have emerged. The archive systems based on those optical media, for example, the BD library, exhibit appealing qualities, such as cost per bit, reliability, power consumption, and so on, and as a result, become viable solutions in long-term digital preservation. This is because optical media have a naturally simple design. The research examined and compared magnetic and optical media-based solutions for long-term digital preservation, and then summarized ways to enhance the long term optical media-based archive system.
