The Data Explosion: Storage Solutions for Zettabytes (2025 Challenge)
The relentless surge of data continues unabated, posing unprecedented challenges for storage solutions. By 2025, the world is projected to generate and store zettabytes of data, pushing the limits of existing infrastructure and demanding innovative approaches. This article explores the key challenges and emerging solutions in the quest to manage the data explosion. The Zettabyte Era: Understanding the Scale A zettabyte is a unit of storage equal to one trillion gigabytes. To put this into perspective, storing the entire Library of Congress would require only a tiny fraction of a zettabyte. The exponential growth of data is fueled by several
