History/Origin
The petabyte was introduced as part of the binary and decimal prefixes for large data storage units, gaining prominence with the growth of big data and large-scale data centers in the early 21st century.
Current Use
Petabytes are used to measure large-scale data storage capacities in data centers, cloud storage services, and enterprise data management systems.
Character
A character is a unit of data representing a symbol, letter, digit, or other mark used in text processing and storage.
History/Origin
The concept of a character originated with the development of written language and was adapted into digital computing with the advent of character encoding standards such as ASCII and Unicode in the 20th century.
