Petabyte (10^15 Bytes)
A petabyte (PB) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^15 bytes or 1,000,000,000,000,000 bytes.
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.
Exabyte
An exabyte (EB) is a unit of digital information equal to one quintillion bytes (10^18 bytes).
History/Origin
The exabyte was introduced as data storage capacities increased, serving as a large-scale unit to measure vast amounts of data, especially in data centers and cloud storage, during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Exabytes are used to quantify large-scale data storage and transfer, such as global internet traffic, data centers, and cloud storage capacities in modern digital infrastructure.
