Teradata announcements made very simple
For reasons of health,* I very regretfully canceled my trip to what is the first conference to go on my schedule every year — Teradata Partners. From afar, I’m not plugged into the details of Teradata’s announcement/embargo schedule. But what you need to know starts with this:
- Teradata signaled a year ago that its software focus was on adding analytic functionality, including specifically in the temporal area.
- Teradata likes to refresh its hardware annually, with a 50%+ price/performance improvement. (This year Teradata is going to 6-core Xeon processors.)
*Just a cough, but I’m both exhausted and potentially contagious, and this wasn’t a trip on which I had any truly urgent obligations (speeches, packed-room consulting sessions, whatever).
