[…] Read the original post: Yahoo is up to 10 petabytes now? […]
i was there but missed that particular presentation – but it should be on the usb keyfob with presentations (will let you know if i can find it)
[…] The Yahoo database is of course Yahoo’s first-generation data warehouse, which has been largely superseded by an internal system more than 10X that size. […]
According to me,,,
Yahoo and Google both are brothers. The thing is that one is younger and another is elder,,,,
And, I am also last younger brother of both. They said me that they have around 1.1 MB size database and they are using RDB ( Rampal Database ).
It appreciate if all can start use RDB database. Actually, that database created by my brother Yahoo ! and Google and they live it by my name,,,
Have a fun ,,,,, Guys,,,,,
Finally, the thing is proved that database size is 10 MB.
Great going Jack good working,,,,
[…] Yahoo is moving as much of its analytics to Hadoop as possible. Much of this is being moved away from Oracle and from Yahoo’s own Everest. […]
