With the costs of sequencing human genomes increasing , demand for storing the sequences may outstrip that of colossal storage users such as YouTube , according to MIT genome Review . Each genome weighs in at around 100 gigabytes , and an estimated 100 m - 2bn human genomes will be sequenced by 2025 , leading to an upper - bound storage requirement of 1000 exabytes , or twice the amount of data transmitted over the internet every month . Cloud storage offerings have begun to build up in the doman , with Google and Amazon both competing with genomics behemoth Illumina in allowing researchers to store the results of their experiment in the cloud , for around $ 200 per genome - year .
