CERN smashes a petabyte of data per second
Our man in Geneva reports from the Large Hadron Collider
Fri Jun 24 2011, 15:40
THE EXPERIMENTS AT CERN are producing a petabyte of data, every second, according to one of our esteemed chums at V3.couk.
Dan Worth, who has been over in Geneva peeking at the Large Hadron Collider, explains that not all the data is captured, which makes a lot of sense, but rather is filtered so that only that which is of interest is saved.
CERN is still storing 25PB of data every year though, and you can find out how much of that is its holiday photos, by visiting V3.co.uk. µ

i started calculating the total cost per day including management, disaster recovery, hardware, warehouse storage, back-end equipment at hundreds of millions of dollars per day before i read the article to clear up my confusion.
dRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY, GAP OF SPARK PLUGS CAN FUSE TOGETHER, FOM EXTREME ENVIORMENT & ATOMIZED FUEL CONTANIMENTS. ican also turn off my caps lock. yet, will CERN take obvious step, & use Fusion Processors to crunch All that data. Data Drashek here, Fusion My name, Fusion My Game.
Turning off caps lock , less fused. self cleaning spark plugs via platinum, less fused. CERN, More Fused. Get With IT, CERN, Fusion. enough to bust fifty million Amp Fuse.
