Hi,

I work on a project that collects geolocalized data.
All data will be in PostgreSQL / PostGIS.

The small PostgreSQL databases will be on Linux guests on VMWare hosts.

The size of the main database will grow by 50 TB / year, 500 M row / day.
For the largest one, we plan to test different options.
One of them is to stay with Linux on WMWare.
Outside the questions about schema, sharding, I would appreciate if some of you have informations, benchmarks, stories
aboutbig PostgreSQL databases on Linux guests on VMWare hosts. 

Regards,
Jean-Gérard Pailloncy
