For some time (e.g. 1y+!) we have known that we want to integrate some kind of datastore / data processing system with CKAN. We've had a CREP in progress on this for some months (may copy that here at some point):

​http://wiki.ckan.org/CEP0004

We can distinguish 3 modules that are needed:

1. "Webstore": A datastore with dataapi - #1208

Suggestion is this would be sqlite based with a simple sql based API. ​http://ckan.net/api/data/{user|org}/{datastore_name}?q={some-read-sql-query}

2. Automated conversion of suitable resources into datastore upon resource creation so that e.g. they are accessible via the API. #1398

3. A data processing system which utilizes this datastore. One could

get a long way with simple javascript running in the browser for development with this javascript then run offline using something like nodejs. Alternatively one could allow one to specify a url to e.g. a python file which would then be run in a sandbox (with access to some specified set of python modules) - #1432

​Spideroak is a bulk storage platform by a company that releases quite a lot of ​free software, has an extensive ​developer API with pricing of $10/100GB/month.

The data store is optimised for bulk data storage and retrieval. This is the kind of use case that CKAN packages require. We don't need low latency. We are after low cost, high reliability solution.
