Kilobyte, often abbreviated as KB or kByte, is a commonly used term in computing and digital storage. It refers to a unit of measurement that is equivalent to 1,024 bytes of data. Some of the synonyms for this term include kilobit, kibibyte, and KBps. A kilobit or kbit is similar to a kilobyte, except that it represents 1,000 bits rather than 1,024 bytes. A kibibyte, also known as KiB, is a more precise version of a kilobyte that represents 1,024 bytes of data exactly. Lastly, KBps refers to kilobytes-per-second, which is a term used in internet speed measurements.
