The NASA/ASU image repository starts at about a quarter petabyte–which makes it the largest single cloud storage customer announced. You’re correct that it’s not the largest cloud deployment. That award would likely go to Symantec/Swapdrive, which stores over 40 petabytes of hard drive backup data for about 9 million active users–or about 4.5 gigabytes per customer.

Here’s more info on the NASA use case including storage figures:
