CDW is convinced that the Teradata data warehouse is the best-kept secret in the data warehousing industry. The secret is the parallel processing. Teradata is the only database in the world that loads, processes, and backs up data in parallel. While other databases utilize a single processor per query, Teradata's tables are distributed equally across all processors. This power allows you to process thousands of gigabytes of information and respond to queries from thousands of users as fast as you need it. Teradata's advanced optimizer allows it to handle this environment without database or query tuning. Additionally, Teradata is the database that is dominating the data warehousing industry with over 850 production sites worldwide from 50GB to over 100 TB.
