ISP Information:
This refers, unsurprisingly, to a database that is very large in size. How large exactly is not specifically defined, but sizes of around a terabyte or more would fit this moniker. Database technology is driven by the need for fast VLDB solutions, and there are annual VLDB conferences and VLDB journals.
