"Once SKA is fully up and running, it will produce more information each
day than the whole of the internet had produced until very recently.

Given that no computer exists that will be able to deal with the volume
of what SKA will produce, the success of the project rests on the
continuing robustness of Moore’s law: that every 18 to 24 months
computer processing power will double."

It may have to find alternative means (see "The end of Moore's Law?")
