[AccessD] Fun and games in web design

Hi Jim --

Have a look:

"Facebook trapped in MySQL ‘fate worse than death’"
http://gigaom.com/cloud/facebook-trapped-in-mysql-fate-worse-than-death/

"What database does Facebook use?"http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3479720/what-database-does-facebook-use


Just facts, no criticism - anyway - Facebook is a great social web site, and as Arthur I do envy the engineers who are keeping such an immense set of SQL and NoSQL databases and media files up & running so smoothly...

Thank you.

Facebook and Google use NoSQL or RM

Both Oracle and MS are heavily into supporting various NoSQL development
projects. Most big systems are not just MS SQL or Oracle but hybrids.

AFAIK, both Amazon and EBay use Oracle.
