I'd also be asking my customers to pay for that linkage and that's not realistic. I am sure there might be technical feasibility to it, but the best solution would be a model with Salesforce where I could use it as a database platform without incurring mega-costs and also without having API limits.

Then they can get at the data in their own org. If you had the configuration, or data that a component needed (e.g. list of zip codes) you share this, and the use is all in the customer organizations.

Amazon's is getting ever closer to delivering on the holy grail of an on-demand utility computing platform. I expect Google's upcoming on-demand storage solution to offer similar benefits.
