Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: OT - Teradata
Good grief, why?
I literally quit a job to avoid TeraData.
It really has little to offer that you can't do in Oracle, that is, other than to the stockholders of NCR. You think Oracle is expensive, TeraData is much more so, and proprietary besides.
I've read the documentation on TeraData architecture. I didn't care for it too much, especially for data warehouse. You don't mention why your customer is using it though.
There is very little available in print on TeraData. When checking into 2 years ago there were 2 books available, both over $100 U.S.

Please respond to ORACLE-L
To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <ORACLE-L_at_fatcity.com> cc: Subject: OT - Teradata
Dear gurus , sorry for the off topic posting.
One of our customers wants to start using Teradata for some of their
products.
That means that I need to learn it, quickly.
I would like to ask for any inputs you can provide regarding Teradata -
your
thoughts , impressions, URLs, any materials.
Thanks a lot in advance.
