About these units
Megabit (Mb)
A megabit equals 1,000,000 bits, a standard networking unit used to express data transfer rates. Internet speeds—both broadband and wireless—are typically quoted in megabits per second (Mbps). Because communication systems often care more about transfer rates than storage quantities, the megabit became a natural standard long before modern high-speed networks. The distinction between megabits (Mb) and megabytes (MB) is crucial, as confusing the two leads to misunderstandings about download times. Megabits remain central to evaluating network performance, streaming quality, and bandwidth provisioning.
Exabyte (EB)
A binary exabyte equals 2⁶⁰ bytes, or 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 bytes, representing an astronomical amount of data. Large cloud platforms, scientific institutions, and governments manage exabytes of archival data, including climate models, particle physics data, telescope surveys, and global internet archives. Working at the exabyte scale requires new paradigms in distributed storage, parallel computing, data replication, and large-scale analytics. Few organizations truly operate at exabyte scale, but this threshold represents the future of global data infrastructure.
