For largest databases see  =
http://www.wintercorp.com/vldb/2003_TopTen_Survey/TopTenWinners.asp   I =
recall a later release where our 1PB database was included.  The folks =
at Wintercorp were looking at databases with online storage only.  Still =
we had about 200 TB online at the time this report was written.  I don't =
have the details, but new event data is no longer being placed in the =
Ojjectivity database.


The operational side will have to be able to acquire data at a fantastic =
rate but store data coverting a limited timespan.  It looks lie the will =
be some aggregation brfore the analysts get their hands on it.=20
