Since its advent, the internet has been in a rapid and very large development, with traffic or so-called TRAEC increasing alarmingly every day, thanks to an increase in the number of users and devices connected to the network. Every video, email, image or voice, is all responsible for increasing this traffic; According to Cisco network traffic will reach 3.3 tpb per year in 2021. But what is a ztabyte?
In 1981 Bill Gates said no one would need more than 640 kilobytes (KB) of memory on his own computer. Over the years it has become clear that this saying is not wrong, but still serves as a sign and recognition that no one has any idea what will happen in the computer market and the Internet world. Today we are surrounded by digital empires that seem indestructible, they gain more users, and more devices, and more services translate all this into data, which in turn must be transported, processed and stored.
This huge amount of data, making companies accelerate the development of storage, which is now measured by new pumps that are no longer limited to gigabyte or even the tirabite, new storage has emerged, including Zeta bytes, and in the picture below you will see the size of this capacity compared to the other.
Cisco has published a series of very interesting predictions. In 2021, it is estimated that there will be more than 27.1 billion calls from more than 4.6 billion users around the world. The volume of traffic will be up to 3.3 tbytes per year, which leads us to a question: What is Zeta-byte?
Zeta Bytes is a computer memory storage capacity measuring unit with "/", one million Bitabytes or skestion (number 1 and on the right of 21 zeros) bytes or as many prefer, 10 ^ 21.
To make it easy for you to imagine the size of this module, storing 1-byte oil will require about 83 million hard disks with 12-byte capacity. 1 Zeta bytes You can store a high-dokki video of about 36 million years.
