Quoting:This is how your precious Oracle database will be used in the future.


Actually, probably not. It turns out that in a cluster the database is a huge bottleneck. At least if you believe Robert X. Cringely ;) http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/2008/pulpit_20081003_0054...

that's the reason for things like mnesia http://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/mnesia/index.html

It won't replace long term persistent storage solutions like Oracle or Postgresql, but it can be used to serve data to and from distributed systems and write it out to the SQL RDBMS's as time allows.
