About these units
Petabyte (10^15 bytes) (PB (10^15))
A decimal petabyte equals 1 quadrillion bytes, a capacity used in cloud data centers, AI training sets, and global archival projects. Organizations like scientific research institutes, major cloud providers, and financial institutions routinely manage petabyte-scale data, requiring specialized infrastructure, redundancy strategies, and data governance. The shift from terabytes to petabytes marks a tipping point where storage strategy must incorporate distributed systems, advanced compression, and scalable metadata management.
Exabit (Eb)
An exabit is 10¹⁸ bits, used in ultra-large-scale networking, such as intercontinental fiber systems, data-center connectivity, and internet backbone capacity projections. Although no single consumer device operates at this scale, network engineers and futurists use exabit terminology to describe the explosive growth of global internet traffic. The exabit embodies the shift toward planetary-scale communication infrastructures, reflecting humanity's increasing dependence on rapid, high-bandwidth connectivity.
