Hello Group,

technology (Oracle, MysQL, Postgres...) does Google use for its database need? 
both in its plethora of apps and internally to manage the company!
and i turned to some of the brightest minds in the industry, i have access to, 
for solid answer :)
Thank you.

Of course they use flat files.  Duh.

Aren't you glad you asked on a mailing list which is 100% unrelated

Paul,

if it has nothing to do with OpenBSD, please don't answer the stupid

Come on Theo...It's related to OpenBSD because google give some money to 
the project i just kiddin, ofcourse.
And you, dumb, why you dont use a search engine, first to ask there 
because, how Theo write before, it's unrelated with openbsd,and trying 
to figure out how to make your query to gave an answer??

You could make this a 'somewhat' moderated mailing list. So that a few
of you can remove messages from the list. Or maybe a the archives only?

Hmm, never mind:) (but I'll post this message)

nah, it's much more fun to expose their stupidity in full view. Plus
it serves as a warning to forecoming dullards, and helps keeping this
list clean.
