Connected Car
Cars have long been considered highly innovative inventions, but in spite of the fact that this is the case the incorporation of various forms of technology have played a role in taking them to the next stage. Companies that are in the business of manufacturing these so called connected cars plan to upload anywhere from 50% to 70% of the data they collect directly to the internet.It is predicted that this could result in the amount of data going into the internet increasing a thousand times over with all things having been considered and taken into account. The question here is where is all of this data going to end up being stored? While there are plans to increase this upper limit to 16 zettabytes, that would only buy a couple more years of time before things start to get risky.Car manufacturers will have to figure out how they are going to deal with this issue.
