Microsoft Readies 'Madison' Data Warehouse Appliance CTP

Microsoft Readies 'Madison' Data Warehouse Appliance CTP: "Madison builds off technology Microsoft acquired when it purchased DATAllegro in 2008.
The goal of Madison is to use MPP (massively parallel processing) to deliver high performance and scalability on SQL Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 and industry-standard hardware. The appliance partitions large tables across multiple physical nodes, with each node having dedicated CPU, memory and storage and running its own instance of SQL Server."
