Can someone provide information about "a shared scaleable database"?
Sounds like marketing BS.
A database has to be "shared", or it wouldn't really be much of a database.
As for "scaleable", is there a vendor out there that would say theirs isn't?

From the 2008 BOL:
The Scalable Shared Database feature enables you to scale out a read-only database built exclusively for reporting (a reporting database). The reporting database must reside on a set of dedicated, read-only volumes whose primary purpose is hosting the database. By using commodity hardware for servers and volumes, you can scale out a reporting database that provides the same view of the reporting data on multiple reporting servers. This feature also allows a smooth update path for the reporting database. For more information, see Scalable Shared Databases Overview.

Interesting, but it sounds like a kludge.
Does anyone know of a situation where someone has actually implemented this?

I'm proposing the Scalable Shared Database architecture at my current client and will probably start a proof of concept shorty. I'm a little concerned that none of the BI friends I've talked with have seen this implemented.
Has no one implemented this?
