today i have a customer that's confused because they DOUBLED the disk size of their database and they're still getting an out of space error? why does your database need so much disk this is ridiculous

they doubled it to 2 GB

seems to me like it's time to move to hbase or maybe have vendors like teradata submit bids for a custom enterprise solution
