It's interesting to see how the storage devices have evolved, and how! The first external hard drive, IBM 350 Disk File, was invented by Reynold B. Johnson, an IBM engineer. Introduced in 1956, the IBM 350 Disk File was massive and had to be stored in air-controlled rooms.
As the technology evolved, the first all web-based data storage system was PersonaLink Services, launched by AT&T in 1994. Amazon Web Services launched AWS S3 in 2006, in part starting the trend toward massive cloud data storage. With cloud storage, remote databases are used to store information, made accessible at any time via internet access. As cloud technologies improve, cloud storage will become less and less expensive.
