Nice concept - how by just flipping over (rather scramble) one can get exceptional read speeds on terabytes of data.
Most read operations are associated with a lot of physical I/O interaction, hence time consuming and were causing lot of grief for developers as well as DB administrators because they were at the receiving end of the flak from customer/clients.
Google came up with Bigtable, a gave the concept of column-oriented database a taste of reality, and look what we have - most of Google's data resides in such column oriented databases.
Will talk about distributed concept later.
