We performed a comparison between MariaDB and Teradata based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Relational Databases Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."From the user's perspective, the performance of the columnar queries is very good in terms of the database when comparing it to the Oracle, and MySQL."
"It's a very easy product to set up."
"Installation is straightforward."
"It is very simple to install, and the commands are exactly the same as MySQL."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is a cloud-based tool, so it is pretty fast."
"MariaDB is a user-friendly solution. Performance wise, it's better than SQL. With SQL, I would need to write a number of queries. In contrast, MariaDB is light."
"The product has good documentation and you can find many examples online."
"It's open source."
"The two types of partitioning have been very significant for us - row and columnar partitioning."
"The feature that we find most valuable is its ability to perform Massive Parallel Processing."
"Teradata is a great, industry-leading data warehousing product that has MPP architecture."
"The most valuable features are the large volume of data and the structuring of the data to optimize it and get very optimal data warehouse solutions for customers."
"The most valuable features of Teradata are that it is a massively parallel platform and I can receive a lot of data and get the queries out correctly, especially if it's been appropriately designed. The native features make it very suitable for multiple large data tasks in a structured data environment. Additionally, the automation is very good."
"The ability to handle machine data parallel processing is the most valuable feature of Teradata."
"Parallel processing features have helped to easily dump any size of data and retrieve data with great performance."
"The functionality of the solution is excellent."
"The PL/SQL performance is slow if you have big batch jobs running overnight."
"The maintenance and performance could be a bit better."
"The solution is not scalable."
"It would be helpful if I could specify multiple drives for the database storage."
"An improvement would be scaling it up to the levels of Oracle, especially when it comes to resilience, so that we can do higher transactions for two databases or power our operation."
"It does not have tools for debugging procedures and functions."
"The configuration could be improved. It should be easier."
"There is room for improvement in terms of security."
"Teradata's UI could be improved."
"I've been using the same UI for 20 years in Teradata. It could use some updating. Adding more stability around Teradata Studio would be outstanding. Teradata Studio is a Java-based version of their tool. It's much better now, but it still has some room for improvement."
"An additional feature I would you like to see included in the next release, is that it needs to be more cloud-friendly."
"Teradata is an old data warehouse, and they're not improving in terms of new, innovative features."
"The capability to implement it with comparable performance across various private cloud environments, ensuring adaptability to different infrastructure setups would be beneficial."
"Teradata is an expensive tool. Like, if you're already using Microsoft products like Windows, they'll market all their products together. And with the rise of cloud technologies, companies will adopt solutions that offer them some privileges or facilities. Similar to how SAP does it in the market, so do Microsoft and other companies. Even Oracle and other such tools are quite commonly seen compared to Teradata's competitors in everyday solutions."
"There is some improvement required on OLTP level and some analytical function is missing."
"The setup is not straightforward."
