Data Storage - What's Next?

For decades, Moore's law predicted that the number of transistors in a chip would double every two years. We just kept building enormously compute intensive monolithic databases thinking that the principles of Moore's law would just keep up. DynamoDB and DocumentDB are awesome examples of OLTP databases that are at least 10x more performance and available at a fraction of the cost today. Move over Moore's law. It's really time to kill the zombie.
