SQL

Hasso Plattner, SAP's CEO, is going to push for increased adoption and use of in-memory databases. He states that using in-memory databases will create a revolution in new applications, especially in the area of business analytics. But, with new developments in faster technology comes application bloat, as the developers no longer have to work around speed limitations. The challenge is to increase usable functionality (as Plattner is suggesting) without also introducing fat, bloated code. Give us performance, but please, don't give us bloat!
