Abstract
Existing relational databases are facing significant challenges as the hardware infrastructure and the underlying platform change from single CPUs to virtualized multicore machines arranged in large clusters. The problems are both technical and related to the licensing models currently in place. In this short abstract we briefly outline the challenges faced by organizations trying to virtualize and bring existing relational databases into the cloud.
