What price Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability?
As someone said once, one database gives you 80% of the solution for 20% of the price, another gives you 99% of the solution for 100% of the price.
I'm not mentioning any names of course so we can all draw our own conclusions ;-)
The real question - why would anyone want to settle for just 80% of a solution?.
