Hypertable was designed for the express purpose of solving the scalability problem, a problem that is not handled well by a traditional RDBMS. While it is possible to design a distributed RDBMS system by breaking the dataset into shards, this solution requires an enormous amount of engineering effort and the resulting system will have inherent weaknesses because the core database engine was not designed for scalability. Hypertable is based on a design developed by Google to meet their scalability requirements and solves the scale problem better than any of the other NoSQL solutions out there.
