Re: Do Petabyte storage solutions exist?

AFAIK Postgres uses an internal limit of 2 GB per table file with
a lot of files per table to make up some Terabytes. So don't worry!
Let's see what one of the gurus will tell us. Bye.

Uh oh, 2 GB limit on table sizes. I did realize the limit was that low.

Would commercial DBMS be the better solution for handling Terabyte databases
and above?
