Preface: I would like to take the liberty of starting a thread of discussion about the technical merits of the press release. Any non technical concerns can be posted under someone else's comment please.
What does this mean for a me as a hacker?
Someone brought up the huge benefit of large scale deployment. I think that's a very interesting point. If Cloudant can get their system to scale to meet their large customer's needs, the overall experience for all clients should be streamlined.
How would such a big client affect their pricing? Would they be able to price the lower tiers more aggressively?
What other side effects does this press release have for their customers?
