The exabyte per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix exa (symbol E) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1.0 × 1018 (1 quintillion, short scale), and therefore 1 exabyte per second = 1.0 × 1018 byte per second = 1000000000000000000 byte per second. The exabyte per second has the unit symbol EB/s.
The kilobyte per second is a the unit bit for data transfer rate. The prefix kilo- (symbol k) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 103 (1 thousand), and therefore, 1 kilobyte / s = 8 kilobits / s = 8000 bits / s.
