  Speaking of AT&T... 312 terabytes in one single database? That starts
requiring some efficiency from the part of the database software...

  I think it could perhaps be safely assumed they use Oracle? (I have read
Oracle is about the only database system out there which scales up so much.
Or at least that's what the Oracle company wants us to believe in any case.)
