Subject: Re: Re[2]: http://www.wintercorp.com/vldb/2003_TopTen_Survey/TopTBut if you run it on small server, ie Windows 2000/XP with less than 1GB memory, Teradata performance is aweful. It hangs from time to time and even some simple query takes considerable time, while Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server never behave like that.----- Original Message -----From: Loughmiller, GregSent: Friday, December 12, 2003 10:29 AMSubject: RE: Re[2]: http://www.wintercorp.com/vldb/2003_TopTen_Survey/TopTextreme parallelism:-) A share-nothing architecture. and some specific software that takes advantage of a hardware configuration.. It's pretty cool stuff for the high end in size DB's. I have seen/performed several comparisons.. And when you are spinning thru large result sets (millions of rows) - TD was the winner hands down...And it's rather expensive stuff. They provide specific hardware along with the software. So they would be a Hardware/Software vendorJonathan is correct - WalMart uses Teradata.-----Original Message-----

Isn't Teradata what Walmart uses? From what I know, it's
always been aimed at the market for really, really big
databases. Hence the prefix "tera", which isn't so big
anymore. Maybe they should rename the product Petadata.
