Teradata Corporation (NYSETDC) is a computer company that sells database software for data warehouses and analytic applications. Its products are meant to consolidate data from different sources and make the data available for analysis. Teradata was incorporated in 1979 and was formerly a division of NCR Corporation, with the spinoff from NCR on October 1, 2007.[2] Teradata is led by Mike Koehler, the former senior vice president of NCR.[3] Teradata's headquarters are in Miamisburg, Ohio.

Introduction

Teradata is an enterprise software company that develops and sells a relational database management system (RDBMS) with the same name. In February, 2011, Gartner ranked Teradata as one of the leading companies in data warehousing and enterprise analytics.[4] Teradata was a division of the NCR Corporation, which acquired Teradata on February 28, 1991. Teradata's revenues in 2005 were almost $1.5 billion with an operating margin of 21%.[3] On January 8, 2007, NCR announced that it would spin-off Teradata as an independently traded company,[5] and this spin-off was completed October 1 of the same year, with Teradata trading under the NYSE stock symbol TDC.[6]

The Teradata product is referred to as a "data warehouse system" and stores and manages data. The data warehouses use a "shared nothing architecture," which means that each server node has its own memory and processing power. Adding more servers and nodes increases the amount of data that can be stored. The database software sits on top of the servers and spreads the workload among them.[7] Teradata sells applications and software to process different types of data. In 2010, Teradata added text analytics to track unstructured data, such as word processor documents, and semi-structured data, such as spreadsheets.[8]

Teradata's product can be used for business analysis. Data warehouses can track company data, such as sales, customer preferences, product placement, etc.[9]

In 2010, the Ethisphere Institute named Teradata as one of the "World's Most Ethical Companies."[10]

Technology and Products

Teradata is a massively parallel processing system running a shared nothing architecture. Teradata's Active Enterprise Intelligence technology consists of hardware, software, database, and consulting. Teradata's technology moves data to a data warehouse where it can be recalled and analyzed.[42] This type of technology aids in "alignment of strategic and operational systems, people, and technology" for business decision making.[43] The Teradata DBMS is linearly and predictably scalable in all dimensions of a database system workload (data volume, breadth, number of users, complexity of queries).[44]

Teradata systems can be used as back-up for one another during downtime. The systems balance the work load across themselves.[45]

Teradata Active Enterprise Data Warehouse

Teradata Active Enterprise Data Warehouse is the platform that runs the Teradata Database 12.10, with added data management tools and data mining software.

The data warehouse differentiates between “hot and cold” data  meaning that the warehouse puts data that will be used often in a special storage area for faster access and the “cold” data will be moved to a slower storage unit.[46] As of October, 2010, Teradata uses Xeon 5600 processors for the server nodes.[47]

Teradata Database 13.10

Teradata Database 13.10 is the company’s database software for storing and processing data in an open parallel framework. [48][49]

Teradata Database 14

Teradata Database 14 is sold as the upgrade to 13.10 and runs multiple data warehouse workloads at the same time.[50] It includes column-store analyses.[51]

Teradata Integrated Analytics

Teradata Integrated Analytics is a set of tools for data analysis that resides inside the data warehouse. Analytics take place within the open parallel framework of the data warehouse.[52]

Backup, Archive, and Restore(BAR)

BAR is Teradata’s backup and recovery system that includes management software, tape libraries, disk back-up systems, and data encryption. [53]

The Teradata Disaster Recovery Solution is automation and tools for data recovery and archiving. Customer data can be stored in an offsite recovery center.[54]

Teradata Platform Family

Teradata Platform Family is a set of products that include the Teradata Data Warehouse, Database, and a set of analytic tools and professional services. The platform family is marketed as smaller and less expensive than the other Teradata solutions.[55]

Customers

Teradata customers include companies such as 

Teradata also shares over 200 joint customers with MicroStrategy, including Hudson's Bay Company, Metro Group, and the USPS.[66][67]

Partners

Below is a list of Teradata partners, as of 2011.

Teradata Partners Conference

Teradata holds an annual user group conference and expo known as Teradata PARTNERS with keynote industry speakers, educational sessions led by customers and other vendors.[73] The Teradata Partners Conference has been an annual event since 1985. [74] The conference involves lectures and speeches on technical and business topics and announcements about new products.[75]

Teradata and Big Data

Teradata began to associate itself with the term, “Big Data” in 2010. CTO, Stephen Brobst, attributes the rise of big data to “new media sources, such as social media.”[76] The increase in semi-structured and unstructured data gathered from online interactions prompted Teradata to form the “Petabyte club” in 2011 for its heaviest big data users.[77]

The rise of big data resulted in many traditional data warehousing companies updating their products and technology.[78] For Teradata, big data prompted the acquisition of Aster Data in 2011 for the company’s MapReduce capabilities and ability to store and analyze semi-structured data.[79]

Public interest in big data resulted in a 13% increase in Teradata’s global sales.[80]

Teradata University Network

The Teradata University Network (TUN) was developed in 2001 as a web portal and educational resource for students and faculty studying database, data warehousing, business intelligence and decision support systems. It is provided to lecturers, students, and other faculty free of charge. The goal of the TUN is to build a collaborative IT education community at the undergraduate and graduate levels. TUN materials consist of syllabi, articles and book chapters, research papers, case studies, software tools, and web seminars.[81]

MicroStrategy, the founding business intelligence partner in the Teradata University Network, allows students and instructors to use its business intelligence software through the TUN. Additionally, MicroStrategy hosts a Teradata server in its in-house laboratory to test software compatibility with Teradata's new releases, creating an integrated technology partnership.[82] Other partners in the Teradata University Network are SAS, KXEN, Planners Lab, Tableau, and the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas.[83] As of 2011, TUN consisted of over 2,300 faculty members from 1,200 universities in 80 countries.[84]


Competition

Teradata's main competitors are other high-end solutions from vendors such as Oracle, IBM, and Sybase IQ which is based on a massively parallel/shared nothing architecture. Recent competition has arisen from data warehouse appliance vendors such as Netezza[85] (IBM is set to acquire Netezza[86]), DATAllegro (acquired in August 2008 by Microsoft), ParAccel, Greenplum (acquired in July 2010 by EMC), and Vertica Systems (acquired in February 2011 by HP), and from packaged data warehouse applications such as SAP and Kalido. These slowed Teradata's penetration into the mid-market and some verticals, particularly energy.

Recognition

Teradata database software is well regarded by industry analysts based on their independent verification of performance against a broad range of competitors. Independent analyst firm Forrester Research in 2009 issued a report, "The Forrester Wave: Enterprise Data Warehouse Platform," by James Kobielus,[87] rating Teradata the industry's number one enterprise data warehouse platform in the "Current Offering" category. Forrester awarded the company perfect scores in 11 categories, including "Professional Services," "Corporate Direction" and "Product Direction."

Marketing research company Gartner Group placed Teradata in the "leaders quadrant" in its 2009 and 2010 report "Magic Quadrant for Data Warehouse Database Management Systems".[88]

In 2010, Teradata was listed in Fortune’s annual list of Most Admired Companies.[89]

Philanthropy

The Teradata Cares program is Teradata’s main philanthropic effort and community relations program. Teradata establishes volunteer efforts in communities with Teradata offices and encourages employees to participate at these programs by giving them four days a year to volunteer during working hours.[90] As of 2010, Teradata Cares was active in 45 cities in 14 countries.[91]

Teradata Cares programs include youth education programs to promote science and technology, bike and blanket donations,[92] and participation in already established programs such as Junior Achievement and United Way.[93]

Teradata has a supplier diversity program that designates a minimum of 3 to 5% of spending on minority, women, veteran, or small business vendors.[94]
