Not sure if this helps but it sounds to me like you may want to look at storing
the data in a rdbms. MySQL, ProgresSQL and Interbase are the free ones (not
entily sure if this is true for interbase). I know oracle could do this (but
of course it is expensive). Also the platform you are using is probably important
for this type of stuff (i.e. go for unix).
