Data is Everywhere
Public data or private data, data is everywhere. Data is constantly being generated every second of everyday. Data is a constant flow on the Internet happening 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, forever and ever for as long as the Internet exists. Businesses never sleep and the world is on a 24-hour non-stop schedule.
From companies and retailers coming out with and listing new products to customers buying new products, from news media outlets writing and publishing news articles, to bloggers writing articles every second, to hundreds of new websites being created, to almost over 100 hours of new video being uploaded to YouTube every minute of each day. At every second of every day, data is constantly happening, from data storage to data usage to data being read to even data being stolen. The world is never asleep and the Internet is always on for our data addiction in order to accommodate the needs of everyone on the planet with Internet access.
This infographic provides insight into data for just a few organizations and our behaviors on the Internet as of 2015. As the years progress and more and more people become connected to the Internet, and as Internet reaches places where it has never been before, these very large numbers of data are expected to increase tenfold.

DATA NEVER SLEEPS 2.0
How Much Data is Generated Every Minute?
Data is being created every minute of every day without us even noticing it. Given how much information is floating around these days, it’s tempting to talk about big data only in terms of size. Big data describes the massive avalanche of digital activity pulsating through cables and airwaves, but it also describes all the things we were never able to measure before. With every status we share, every article we read, or every photo we upload, we are creating a digital trail that tells a story. Below, we explore how much data is generated in one minute.
