Data Explosion : R V Ready?

We have social networking profiles like orkut, facebook, Linkedin & many more online application.

Have you relized that last 5 years how many profiles have been created ? The number is so big.

Have you relized how much data is stored behind these profiles?

In india, we started using these profile from our generation only. Think the number of user after  two generation and the amount of data due to that.

When we are making a call , when we do shopping, when we do banking, when we accessing social network site and making new profile, we are only creating data.

Do you think, in a sinlge minute how many people do the calls and how many people makes their new profile?
Every minutes we are increasing data.

What you think, we will not crosss tera-peta byte databases very soon?

We will must cross, for that do our existing technologies are capable enough? I cant say yes.

Second thing, it would be very tough to decide the obsolete data,to purge our databases. Isnt it?

We are now  started creating the data very fast, We will certainly need to enhance our technologies, may be
we need to think beyond our existing DB technologies.

Whats your thoughts?
