We need to store apporx 300 GB of data a month. It will be OLTP system.
We want to use commodity hardware and open source database. we are
willing to sacrifice performance for cost. E.g. a single row search
from 2 billion rows table should be returned in 2 sec.
... Good grief. And you didn't post this to some hobby-kit database
list, right? Try loading a free Linux distro and typing :
man dbopen
man hash
man btree
man mppo
man recno
I'm sure there's all sorts of free stuff out there that will keep you
busy.
BTW, as for these primitives, I've been there and done that...Tuxedo
too...loads of fun. But then I've done Control Data IPF2 on Cyber
180/830 and lived to tell about it.
