I believe such things already exist, for example the Nitro storage
engine. There is a presentation about it at the coming MySQL
conference...

When our database reaches the 10-100TB range, we may need to consider
non-relational databases. Relational databases like MySQL tend to
heavily rely on random access, which is governed by the slow disk seek
rates. On the other hand, non-relational database pioneered by
Google's
Map/Reduce framework operate at much faster disk transfer rates. Open
source solutions incorporating these ideas exist, such as Yahoo's
Hadoop
and CouchDB.
Are there currently (or plans for) any mySQL engines with this type of
database?
