It is Teradata’s most significant and advanced release in terms of new lines of code, features that drive additional capabilities, customer value and a remarkable performance boost. Already recognized as the market leader, Teradata 13 provides customers an even more affordable foundation for a wide range of business analytics, which supports both departmental and enterprise intelligence for companies of all sizes.
Performance
Teradata 13 provides an overall improvement up to 30 percent for query processing, with some workloads running up to 20 times faster than on the previous database version. The Teradata 13 query optimizer has been improved allowing queries to run faster and consume fewer resources. The query optimizer interprets a query and determines the most efficient way for the database to
process it providing business users with a rapid response to their queries. Database administrators and application developers don’t have to be involved, because these enhancements deploy automatically.
Teradata 13, with its unique and fully-integrated workload management capabilities, now enables data to stream up to two times faster into the data warehouse. Simultaneously, tens-of-thousands of variables can be analyzed directly in the database. The high-speed data loading and analysis do not interrupt or slow each other, providing agility for business users. The loading of data at high speed has been made possible by using specialized tables to support businesses that accumulate massive data volumes like retail and financial services.
