  • Performance is good
  • Cloud instance doesn't need much management
  • Integrates well with our tools
  • Managed backups could be better. Triggered scheduling, and being able to back up different areas of data at different times would be great.
  • The clearscape interface should be provided as an option in the cloud on an application node in the same instance as the database
  • Add better ability to use timestamps - functions to add dates and times to get a timestamp, convert timestamp(6) to timestamp(0) easily, etc.

  • ETL (Extract - Transfor - Load)
  • NOS to send data from Teradata Vantage to S3 and from S3 to Teradata Vantage
  • Teradata GeoSpacial feature
  • Bulk reading and writing in huge tables
  • MPP capacity already mature
  • Temporal Capacity more mature that other solutions
  • TASM
  • Unity (CDC needs a lot of improvement)
  • Ecosystem
  • Procedure programming language (very poor)
  • Functions programming language (very poor)
  • Space management needs improvement
  • BAR should be part of main solution and not an "extra" feature (as Oracle)
  • Native data masking feature (Oracle has "data redaction")
  • Teradata Vantage should have "Synonym" feature

  • Teradata is a MPP system and its capabilities allow [us] to process a huge amount of data with great performance since it works by the concept of nodes (amps), being scalable and offering great reliability about data recovering, massive processing managing, data backup, etc.
  • Teradata Vantage integrates Python, R and other tools that allow [us] to work and develop complex Data Science wise processes.
  • Teradata is extremely efficient and it has lot of utilities to support extraction from different source systems.
  • Support for geospatial data could be better.
  • Quite expensive compared to other products out there on the market.

  • Teradata database is based on Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) architecture. Because of this architecture, Teradata is able to share the workload evenly across all the system. It splits the work equally to its processes and each process runs in parallel to achieve the result in quickest possible time.
  • The underlying work is done by Teradata nodes, Access Module Processors (AMPs) and the disks associated with AMPs. The beauty is that none of them share any resources which means they all work independently and achieve actual parallel processing with the fastest results. The each AMP shares the same amount of work so that no resource stays idle and the output can be quicker.
  • Another excellent feature of Teradata is the Connectivity portion. It can so easily connect to almost all the major systems like Mainframes, Oracle DB or IBM DB2. The import of loads is super fast and efficient.
  • It is also really helpful when you have to troubleshoot an error because it provides great diagnostic information and therefore saves you a lot of time and effort by not having to go through all the logs manually and find the error and cause for it.
  • Teradata is an excellent option but only for a massive amount of data warehousing or analysis. If your data is not that big then it could be a misfit for your company and cost you a lot. The cost associated is quite extensive as compared to some other alternative RDBMS systems available in the market.
  • Migration of data from Teradata to some other RDBMS systems is quite painful as the transition is not that smooth and you need to follow many steps and even if one of them fails. You need to start from the beginning almost.
  • Last but not least the UI is pretty outdated and needs a revamp. Though it is simple, it needs to be presented in a much better way and more advanced options need to bee presented on the front page itself.
