Yeah except for serious data warehouses there's so much data you have to bring the compute in because getting data out is infeasible.

If that's not the case, you aren't running a data warehouse, just a (big, maybe) database.

There will be another blog from us at some point about running the data warehouse at scale. We're already working on integrating with s3 storage, and distributed compute is in the roadmap. Both possible today with open source extensions, and our friends in industry are already doing it.
