Adam Bosworth gave a keynote regarding the idea of Open Data for decentralized processing. As a result of a simple, sloppy, standards-based, scalable (Scalabil Ity) Plat Form, we have information at our fingertips from GooGle, AmaZon, EBay, and Salesforce Com... Bosworth predicts that RSS 2.0 and Atom Standards will be the lingua franca that will be used to consume all data from everywhere. These are simple formats that are sloppily extensible... Bosworth said you need to limit your queries to those that can be easily implemented by everybody and those that can be handled by a single machine. This requires that your queries run at the item level. This might feel odd to those used to dealing with Data Base-s, as this means you are not likely to perform joins, aggregations, or subqueries. There is plenty of SQL that cannot be supported.
