Database updated

Teradata 13, which includes Database 13, Tools and Utilities 13, services and partnerships, has been released.

Ninety-three new features achieving an overall performance improvement of up to 30% have been incorporated. Software performance has more than doubled, based on improvements in the last three years.

The query optimiser has been improved allowing queries to run faster and consume fewer resources.

Teradata 13, with its unique and fully integrated workload management capabilities, now enables data to stream up to twice as fast into the data warehouse. Simultaneously, tens of thousands of variables can be analysed 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 for using specialised tables to support businesses that accumulate massive data volumes like retail and financial services.
