The kind most ones focus? (multi-node, cloud-scalable) are fairly niche. I live in the enterprise sector where you can get many rdbms living alonside (+ cloud) and I know for a fact "scalability" is close to zero in the list of actual needs. I don't mean to say scalability is not importan, but is a NICHE: You only need when you truly start to get to certain ceilings. My customers (a few big companies in my country) consider 10-30 GB rdbms "big". And "slow". Is far far more problems is terrible schema designs (like, actually do everything in their power to make rdbms look bad, and not be that successfully). --- So, my point is that exist far more quality of life to be done at the core/fundamentals before worry much about what to do when I have 100 TB databases across continents...
