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.
Word
A word is a unit of data that typically consists of a fixed number of bits or bytes, used to represent a single piece of information in computing systems.
History/Origin
The concept of a word originated in early computer architecture to denote the standard size of data that a processor can handle efficiently, evolving with advancements in hardware to include larger and more complex data units.
Current Use
In modern computing, a word's size varies depending on the architecture (e.g., 16-bit, 32-bit, 64-bit), and it is fundamental in defining data transfer, processing, and storage operations within digital systems.
