KiloBytes
A kilobyte is equivalent to 1,024 bytes, often used to measure the size of small files like text documents or icons. It’s the first notable step up from the byte, giving a more practical way to describe data that involves text, simple graphics, or small images. Understanding kilobytes helps when considering storage for email attachments, photos, and more.
PetaBits
A petabit is 1,000 terabits, representing a quadrillion bits. Petabits are used in data-intensive environments, such as large-scale data centers and communication backbones, where vast amounts of data need to be transferred quickly. The petabit provides a useful metric for describing the bandwidth needed for high-demand scenarios like global streaming services.
