Allowing customers to start randomly pumping data into a database would just throw more trees into the mix.
SQL is a wonderful thing, it allows you to sort and filter lots of raw data very quickly given that you have collected the raw data in the first place and therein lies the problem.
As you have stated above VM have the ability to access all their modems and get all the raw data they require, I guess the real question is why don't they seem to?
