Walmart does about $50million per hour in transactions
Based on the $422bil yearly revenue (wiki).


That is a ton of data and very WAN dependent. Crazy how it seems to work (most) of the time.

the IT/IS department is going to have many questions from the brass.

Capitalism is about competition. Lots of competing companies, so we get the best price for every type of product, due to a non steering natural law.
But with huge companies, we have a few people who decide for the masses what there can be bought at what price.
We got a few companies, who now decide what clothes we can buy, what food we all eat and like everything else.
Capitalism only works with lots of small and medium sized businesses.

or you could pay more for less choices and slow down productivity, and have the monopolies in your neighborhood and nationally.
