So Nanos can run quite a few databases today and you should get the same sort of experience that running a database on any vm will produce (that is everything running in the cloud).
You are absolutely correct though that most filesystems in use today were designed to utilize and more appropriately put deal with various aspects of running on actual real hardware which is interesting as compared to running on a vm. I think there is a ton of room for newer filesystems to emerge that are tuned for virtualized workloads vs tuning them for hardware.
