According to the DOMO Data Never Sleeps Report 10.0, in 2022, the global data creation, capture, copying, and consumption totalled approximately 97 zettabytes. This number is expected to surge to a whopping 181 zettabytes by the year 2025. Just to put it in perspective, a zettabyte equals one trillion gigabytes.
Every year, a staggering 1.81 trillion photos are taken worldwide, which translates to a mind-boggling 57,000 per second or a jaw-dropping 5.0 billion per day. We are witnessing an unprecedented rate of data creation, but it doesn't stop there; we're also sharing data at an astonishing speed.
In 2022, YouTube users uploaded a mind-blowing 500 hours of content every single minute, while Instagram users were sharing a remarkable 66,000 images per minute. The velocity at which data is being generated and shared is driving an accelerated adoption of cloud technology.
A report predicts that by 2025, the total data stored in the cloud will reach a monumental 100 zettabytes. At that time, around 50% of the world's data will reside in the cloud, a significant increase from the approximately 25% stored there in 2015.
However, this rapid growth in cloud adoption isn't without its challenges. Costly cloud outages and security breaches are the primary obstacles hindering the seamless integration of cloud solutions.
In a world where data privacy, security, and transparency take centre stage, the fusion of blockchain technology with cloud computing is at the forefront of revolutionizing how we store, manage, and access data. Allow me to introduce you to "Decentralized Cloud with Web3 (Blockchain)," a course meticulously crafted to equip you with the knowledge required to leverage the potential of decentralized cloud architectures powered by blockchain technology.
By the conclusion of this course, you'll possess a robust comprehension of how Web3 and blockchain technology can reshape the traditional paradigms of cloud computing.
