there entire books on subject (which makes unsuitable stackoverflow question).

you underestimate efficiency of standard rmdbs though, unlikely dealing data @ anywhere near scale google , rmdbs fine purposes. if outgrow it, outgrow , can @ other options (of there quite lot, including sharding , nosql databases), don't optimise prematurely.
