Thats' what I thought. All this talk about indexes and multi server
architecture doesn't really tell the whole story. I'm sure there's
something more going on here. What other type of databases are there?
RDMS, OLAP, that's the extent of my knowledge. There is a whole theory
of database architecture that I'm sure the average DBA knows nothing
about.
