Teradata Taking Home All the Gold

Teradata Taking Home All the Gold
Recently, I found myself thinking about Michael Phelps winning eight gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Games. That was one of the most amazing athletic accomplishments ever! Phelps went on to become the most decorated Olympian of all time with a total of 28 medals.
 
Teradata is the Michael Phelps of Analytics as measured by expert, objective industry analyst rankings. We’ve consistently been ranked as the top solution across all leading analyst studies. Currently, we are taking home gold for the following: “Teradata is the top-ranking vendor for each of the four use cases and has a comfortable margin in each.” Gartner Critical Capabilities for Data Management Solutions for Analytics
 
“In this annual research cycle the vendor with the happiest customers was Teradata," Information Difference
 
Running on a modern cloud architecture is a critical element of all these rankings. Based on your requirements, you can run Vantage on AWS, Azure, (Google Cloud in the future), in your data center on our optimized hardware, or on your VMWare private cloud. With our new consumption pricing model, you can start with no up-front commitment and pay per query to get stated. So yes, Vantage is fully optimized for multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
 
Is good enough really good enough? Analytics is at the top of every CIO’s priority list because it can drive a competitive advantage for your company. Vantage unifies Analytics, Data Warehouses, and Data Lakes and runs at massive scale and speed. You can consolidate hundreds and thousands of disparate analytic silos that exist in your company and start delivering the answers your business requires. Why settle for anything less than the best?
 
Every data analytics software vendor will make claims that their technology is best, but these rankings clearly show that Teradata Vantage is the leading software platform for analytics at scale. Competitors try to paint us as a “legacy vendor” but these rankings make these claims laughable. Our legacy is being the best in the industry. Period.
