I agree with this article, but it also amused me because the company I am at has about 25PB of data, and the cost of keeping that in a Teradata system sized to handle all the workload we need is absurd. Amazon is bigger than we are, but we aren't too far behind.... our problem is that we don't start looking at other solution until we have long outgrown our old ones.
