Tech company data storage

July 11, 2024

Which tech company stores the most information on the internet? Is it … A.) Amazon, B.) Facebook, C.) Google or D.) Wikipedia?

The answer: A.) Amazon. Not the Amazon we shop but Amazon Web Services, which stores around 250EB of data. You’ll need to put on your thinking cap for this: 1 exabyte is equivalent to 1 million terabytes (TB), or 1 billion gigabytes (GB). So, 250 exabytes equals 250 million terabytes, or 250 billion gigabytes. It’s a lot of data.
