Greenplum discloses a bit of pricing

Getting information about Greenplum pricing is not always easy.  However, a bit was disclosed in a recent Greenplum blog post, which said:

… roughly $200k … For that amount you get the hardware, software and services to stand up around a 4TB (usable) Greenplum DW …

No doubt there are large quantity discounts for much bigger systems.
