Fair point. There will still be some very, very large scale problems in the B2B wave.

If I weren't trying to keep the wording of my blog entry so tight, I would have more clearly distinguished the following three cases:

(1) B2B apps that do not challenge our notion of scale like the B2C wave did. (stuff that doesn't need something like Couchbase)

(2) B2B apps that are of similar scale to the B2C wave (stuff that does need something like Couchbase)

(3) B2B apps that challenge our notion of scale in a whole new way (stuff that will disrupt Couchbase)

I was trying to say that:

(a) There will be a lot of case (1)

(b) There will also be plenty of case (2)

(c) I'm not sure we will see any of case (3) in this wave. We're probably not going to see much NEW disruption that didn't already happen in the B2C wave. And that's part of why there won't be a lot of buzz.
