Petabyte
A petabyte (PB) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000 terabytes or 1,000,000 gigabytes, used to measure large data storage capacities.
History/Origin
The petabyte was introduced as data storage capacities grew beyond terabytes, becoming more common with the expansion of data centers and large-scale storage systems in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Petabytes are used to quantify data in large-scale data centers, cloud storage services, and enterprise data management, reflecting the massive scale of modern digital data.
Exabyte (10^18 Bytes)
An exabyte (EB) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^18 bytes.
History/Origin
The exabyte was introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to represent extremely large data quantities, becoming more relevant with the growth of big data and data centers in the early 21st century.
Current Use
Exabytes are used to quantify large-scale data storage capacities, such as global internet data traffic, data centers, and cloud storage infrastructures.
