Digital/Cyber Storage - Current Overview

Domain Overview and Forecast Focus

Current Conditions (Snapshot)

Benjamin Yu Tech 1313 Impact of Modern Technology on Society Topic: Digital Storage The area of interest for my particular domain focuses on digital storage, more specifically cyber storage. Digital storage has evolved exponentially over the past decade. As each generation begins to adapt more and more to the technological era, the demand for digital storage will continue to grow and the suppliers must meet not only the demand but also the satisfaction. Not only are people going to want to keep as much data as they can for easy access but they want to keep it secured as well. The scope of the forecast will center on the evolution of cyber storage. How will suppliers react to the demand and how will government react to the privacy aspect of it. We also have to consider the potential shortage of space and what other technologies will be developed to address that concern. TECH 1313 – Impact of Modern Technology on Society Instructions: Provide a Current Overview of your domain. That is, how is the domain structured? How does it operate today? You may consider the broader industry / sector(s), how large it is (people, product, service, money), where it is location(s), current practices (laws, regulations, contracts), and organizations involved? Again, this is a highlight to help others understand the current conditions of your domain. It represents our starting point. Submit between five and ten of the most important current conditions for your Individual Domain where each one should 1) be something about the present (no changes or comparisons across time, a snapshot, a still picture) 2) give important information about the state of the domain and 3) use numbers (quantities) where appropriate. Explain each one sufficiently using complete sentences. Give references and citations on the source of the information.
