Megabit
A megabit (Mb) is a unit of digital information equal to one million bits, commonly used to measure data transfer speeds and network bandwidth.
History/Origin
The term 'megabit' emerged with the development of digital communication and data storage technologies in the late 20th century, becoming standard for describing internet speeds and data rates.
Current Use
Megabits are widely used today to specify internet connection speeds, network bandwidth, and data transfer rates in telecommunications and networking contexts.
Petabyte (10^15 Bytes)
A petabyte (PB) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^15 bytes or 1,000,000,000,000,000 bytes.
History/Origin
The petabyte was introduced as part of the binary and decimal prefixes for large data storage units, gaining prominence with the growth of big data and large-scale data centers in the early 21st century.
Current Use
Petabytes are used to measure large-scale data storage capacities in data centers, cloud storage services, and enterprise data management systems.
