I've heard of some having a server bank of TeraBytes (Oracle claims its biggest client has a data warehouse of 23 TB!!) and 1000s of concurrent users, although you'd have to have a superfast/wide bandwidth network infrastructure and a lot of capital to play with ;o).

B.T.W. almost 100% of all large internet sites (search engines like Yahoo etc.) have an Oracle backbone, even Microsoft supposedly use Oracle. What does that say about SQL Server?
