Sybase DB sizes out there

[MostlyNuts]

Hello all,
I am trying to find out the typical size of a Sybase DB admins are running.
Are they <100GB, 200GB, 300GB up to TB sizes or greater than that, etc.?

All help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
MN

Hi

My 'average' LARGE SB is => 100 GB.

Our company is working on an email archive routine for out client that 400GB a year. We will be storing 7 years at a time for legal purposes.

What are you using for your email archiving tool? Curious about that for other reasons.
Thanks a lot for the info. It surely helps.

MN,

I built a couple VLDB Data Warehouses for a major healthcare organization using Sybase ASE 11.5.
They were over 1.5 TeraBytes each 3 years ago.
They are probably even bigger now.
We were loading over 400,000 complex transactions per night into these things.
