It's easy to blow away anything Oracle or IBM have - what's my story ... ?
I know you've heard it all before, but the Oracle guys were OOOHHHH so proud
that their database (on a twin Xeon 800) was actually TEN percent faster than
Pick on a Pentium 90! And that after spending six months optimising the heck out
of it to get that speed!

That is one of the reasons Google has become the leading
search provider. You have to have access to the data to
begin with before you can search it. I'm no data base expert,
but I see Google as just a free form data base of the entire
Internet connected world. It would not be a great step for
them to apply their techniques to any other data set.
Perhaps that is Oracle's great fear.
