Thinking something along the lines of, implementing/modelling SQL operators in FPGA hardware, using massive parallelization through the FPGA. That needs direct I/O access to very fast storage to be optimal, and probably still additional processing via a CPU or GPU. Expensive custom data warehouse appliances like Netezza already do something like this, but I'm hoping for an implementation that is less expensive and more generally available, that can be exploited to accelerate any database's operations. Bonus points if it can scale up to a distributed model somehow.
