It sounds like you have everything figured out, the solution is beyond comprehension for mere mortals, and that you'll have 100s of millions of dollars shortly. Perhaps with your new found wealth you can open an IT VC, invest in email

Fair enough. I think the reason people struggle with classifying this stuff is because there are a lot of gray areas and it's difficult to verbalize all the details meaningfully. One could say "Oh...RDBMSes!"...but teradata

by ironchef 13y ago
I'm going to somewhat disagree. Traditional data warehouses (teradata for example) can handle well into the petabytes. I think Ebay's main TD cluster was around 15 or 20 PB last I knew. I think you're more along the proper

The 3 typical traits used in discussing big data are volume (size of the data), velocity (speed of data entry / exit...or as you call it how "hot" the data is), and variety (number of different sources / schema, etc.)...

I think you may want to think about treating the analyses like an ETL pipeline (think dependent jobs in chronos or some such) using some intermediary (S3, whatevs). That would probably be useful to a lot of analysts.

Hmm. So the first argument was that fair use can't be commercial, but the Supreme Court obviously showed that commercial parody can be considered fair use. Now the argument is that the parody isn't commercial enough? That it&#x

I don't think it's ignoring that. Fair use for profit can still be legal. See Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music Inc as an example.

"It's not fair use if it is commercial" <- that statement isn't true. See Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music Inc as an example where parody (for profit) still won.
