Teradata users seek better transaction processing, enhanced scalability, modern interface, cloud focus, advanced analytics, and improved support and documentation.
Unlike SQL and Oracle, which have in-built replication capabilities, we don't have similar functionality with Teradata.

Teradata is much more expensive than SQL, which is well-performed and cheaper.

N2W provides efficient data backup and recovery with a user-friendly interface, benefiting AWS workload management and user experience.
Teradata offers efficient, scalable data management with fast query performance, robust security, automation, and cloud flexibility for businesses.
The data mover is valuable over the last two years as it allows us to achieve data replication to our disaster recovery systems.
