There's a debate raging here on the better very scalable data warehouse
environment.
The SAS camp claims that SAS is better for building predictive models,
easier to work w/external data sets, robust enough for high volume/high
scale.
The RDB camp (to which I belong) says that the RDB offers higher
scalability, better utilization of parallel processors, and much better
openess to OLAP and CRM tools.
