Big hardware. ;)

But seriously, that's not a question to be answered easily.

A team that I was a member of spent 9 months answering that question.

There's a lot more to it than just determining which piece of HW the main database resides on.

But anyway, our answer for the main piece of HW was an 16 Way IBM S80 with 16 gig of RAM. Or was it 32 gig? Not sure.

Big anyway.

1-3 terabytes of raw data. ASCII format. Flat files. No requirement for RDBMS Goal: to be able to "refresh" weekly from tapes/cds/other sources.

What kinds of software/hardware may be needed to tackle this?
