    ZZZBodyZZZBEG Back in the 1970s, it was popular for businesses to rent time using big, mainframe computer systems. These systems were extremely large and expensive, so it didn’t make sense financially for businesses to own the computing power themselves. Instead, they were owned by large corporations, government agencies, and universities. Microprocessor technology allowed for great reductions in size and expense, leading to the advent of the personal computer, which exploded in popularity in the 1980s. Suddenly, businesses could (and did)…

    Talk about perfect timing — a Google engineer revealed that she broke the world record for calculating pi on National Pi Day. Thursday’s date, March 14 (or 3.14), matches the first three digits that most people use to refer to pi.

    As the Big Data revolution continues its exponential growth, the problems of processing and protecting that also grow. Advanced ECCs – along with hardware and geographic redundancy – can ensure that data loss becomes less likely than an asteroid strike, at only a 40 percent overhead, much lower than the triple redundancy used in some cloud storage. But when the data redundancy is compromised by a hardware failure – disk, server, or data center – redundancy must be restored. As…

    Each day seem to bring a new story on a data security breach or unfortunate hacking. One solution is to use a blockchain data storage, which is more secure than a typical cloud that gets stored on a centralized database. Blockchain has a few advantages over the traditional cloud data storage as the technology makes it so that hackers are not able to target blockchain storage accounts as easily or invisibly. It is also difficult for a potential hacker to…
