Store data without headaches

In the 19-20 century, data recording technologies were actively replaced and their performance grew exponentially. I would like to note the prefactors that used the holes in the paper as a memory cell and then read it out. The Williams-Kilburn tube, who first came to the concept of a binary code using a ray tube electrode, he would later collaborate with IBM and other world renowned companies with his patent. Ferito memory, which quickly replaced William's work with its incomparable memory volume of 4-16Kb :D.

But the aforementioned technology races have sprung up their giants. So the well-known CDs and DVDs broke into the 80-90s with breakthrough technologies and huge support due to the active development of personal computers and the demand for data exchange.

But the giants are falling as well, introducing the hard drive, which was first released by IBM in 1956 as part of the IBM 305 RAMAC mainframe. The disc weighed 0.9 kg, had a capacity of 3.75 MB and a recording density of 2000 bits per square meter. inch. To date, hard drive density has increased more than 60 million times, and capacity costs have dropped from $ 9,200 to $ 0.000003 per megabyte. Today, anyone can purchase a hard drive for storing information directly from themselves.

Also, the issue became popular with portability and humanity received memory cards, which were much smaller than hard drives. Now memory cards and hard drives are at the Olympus in the technology race.

What is cloud computing? Roughly speaking, instead of the power of our computers, we use the power of the remote computers to which we connect over the network.

If you dream a little, then soon we no longer need powerful computers, and your old computer on Pentium and GTX 460 will be able to run all the new games. Okay, I think it's clear now why this is the future.

Web applications. Agree, it's very convenient when you can just enter the url address and use the desired functionality. No need to download anything, download updates, etc. All web applications are in this category, because there are already a lot of them and 90% of programs can replace them.

Cloud storage. A huge plus of clouds is that you can access all your files from any device with an Internet connection. This way we can get rid of the huge hard drives. An SSD can come in handy for quickly writing a downloaded file, but a large size is not needed.

Streaming services. Now everyone uses Youtube, Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, etc. You use them on a daily basis and did not even think that before all this was not there and all the music and videos we had downloaded, but now remember the last time you downloaded music or video? Now you can already buy a speaker with the embedded music service or a TV with YouTube.

Games. These services have started to develop relatively recently. Google rocks with recently introduced Google Stadia. Yeah. Google's data centers are the most powerful and flexible today? Now it's up to them. Either this service will be added to the Google's list of failures, or it will blow up and everyone will finally start switching to cloud gaming.
