How Big Is The Digital Universe?
IBM conservatively reports that we create 2.5 Exabytes of data per day!
(1EB = 1M TBs)
(1ZB = 1K EB or 1B TBs)
Michael Lesk, the Bell Labs computer scientist known for the Lesk Algorithm, wrote in 1997 (!), “There may be a few thousand petabytes (1K TBs) of information all told … the typical piece of information will never be looked at by a human being.”
