Question: In the Big Data and Supercomputing world, the current capabilities, and future requirements (both in terms of computation) are described in terms of the prefixes

In the Big Data and Supercomputing world, the current capabilities, and future requirements (both in terms of computation) are described in terms of the prefixes Exa, and even Zetta (in terms of Flops). Find a way to relate these numbers to something so that the magnitude is easier to grasp. Be creative. The purpose is to get an idea of the power of those machines so that it is easy to remember what they can do, rather than expressing that in terms of powers of 10. Your task is to find two of those relations from the options of Exabyte, Exaflops, Zettabyte, and Zettaflops. Describe these relations (minimum of 200 words each) and include any calculations you perform (5 marks). Simple relationships in terms of powers of 10 relative to each other will not earn any marks
