The main issue with this is that this would be a vendor specific solution that would lock everybody.

We build a product that you can host yourself. If we only solve the scaling issue by pushing it down to a specific vendor, then there is no actual solution.

The way we are facing the problem is first by enabling a really easy and simple form of sharding (that would solve most of the issues that a lot of big customers may face), and then by using an open source underlaying filesystem that can scale reasonably well.
