While I have my head in the clouds, I should mention that Vertica has a cloud solution that they manage for you. Not new, but gives some perspective.

With competitive offerings in the $10-20k per terabyte, this is an attractive offer and a great way to try before you invest when you have that much data.

I hear Vertica is a screamer, but I can’t imagine getting sub-second results for 3 TB of data on 3 virtualized servers, for the same reasons I gave in my previous post.
