Erik, Very useful info. As you may know (saw the reference to BDBC in your page), we are organizing fourth workshop on Big Data Benchmarking on Oct 9-10 in San Jose (http://clds.ucsd.edu/bdbc/workshops/fourth_wbdb). In this workshop, we hope to get closer to defining a definitive Big Data benchmark. There have been several efforts underway, and we hope to bring them together under the TPC umbrella. In particular, the most promising candidate currently is BigBench (http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2463712).
It would be great if you could attend this workshop and present your views.
