Anyone seen their workload reduced due to unstructured data?
Death of the database
As improvements in networking technologies lead to real-time
connectivity to any data, that data will be best kept closest
to its natural source rather than at the intersection of a
database's row and tuple. At last week's Symposium ITxpo, Gartner
analysts backed up that premise with two examples: an RFID-tag
equipped can of soup, and a chip embedded in the back of a human
hand. Must data always be stored -- or cached -- in a database?
If not, it's time for DBAs and BI vendors to to reinvent themselves.
