This is a thinly disguised ad for AppSignal's product, but one bit jumped out at me: "You run a shared CMS for publishing on the Web, and you allow article segments to be stored in your database. Your platform becomes successful, but most of your authors write book-sized articles. The pages table becomes very sizeable even though it only contains a few thousand pages." How is this data hoarding?! Storing the text of the articles is the most fundamental duty of a database in a CMS and you have to be hugely successful for users to manually create a problematic amount of data. Unless you're running a content farm where the actual articles don't matter this doesn't seem like a problem.
