World's Largest Databases Ranked

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the cylinder-sizing dept.

prostoalex writes "Winter Corp. has summarized its findings of the annual TopTen competition, where the world's largest and most hard-working (in terms of load) databases are ranked. The results are in, and this year the contestants were ranked on size, data volume, number of rows and peak workload. I wrote up a brief summary of the top three winners in each category for those too lazy to browse the interactive WinterCorp chart."

    I would say that most likely, for the vast majority of HTML pages, the metadata is bigger or at least comparable to the page itself. So it's probably a lot more than 10TB, but still, looking at the figure, it's not really much in terms of "mass".
