Hello All,

I was going through the Oracle Power Objects user guide today and found an abbreviation I have not seen before, I was wonder if anyone can tell me what it means.

The context it was used in is as follows:

Max. size of database file: 2PB (or limit imposed by operating system)

What is PB?

I know what KB, and MB, and even TB, but never heard of PB.
