			<![CDATA[SQL Federation seems like such a hack to me rather than a thought out sharding implementation. for example, one of the primary reasons to use an RDBMS system over a NoSQL system is reporting. If you use Federations you essentially can no longer run reports across your entire data set, at least not through TSQL&#33; I can envision writing something to loop through your federations and aggregating your results but what a disaster&#33; Federation just seems like a terrible idea, unless you never need to run reports across your entire data set, which I can&#39;t think of many situations where you wouldn&#39;t need to do that&#63; <p>posted by Eric</p>]]>
