Teradata Corporation (Teradata Corporation, NYSE: TDC) recently announced the launch of the Teradata Unified Data Environment (TERADATA, unified data Environnement) and the Unified Data Architecture (Unified). Teradata Unified Data Environment is a framework that can help enterprises to deal with all types of data and a variety of teradata systems. The Teredata Unified Data Architecture utilizes best-of-breed and complementary technologies from Teradata, Teradata aster, and open source Apache Hadoop to help business users to ask any questions about any data at any time, with any analysis tools. Teradata Unified Data Environment and unified data architecture include Teradata Viewpoint, Teradata connectors (Teradata Connector), and Teradata critical infrastructure (Teradata Vital Infrastructure), new software and new hardware Teredata Data Warehouse platform 2700 (Teradata, Warehouse 2700) and appliance Aster Large data analysis dedicated platform (Teradata Aster Big Analytics appliance). With Teradata unified data architecture, organizations can now deploy, support, manage, and seamlessly access all data in a consolidated, dynamic Teradata Unified Environment (Teradata Unified Environnement). Teradata The value of this technology consolidation far exceeds the total value that independent technology can produce.
Unified Data Architecture
Enterprises face many obstacles in establishing an effective and unified environment, because such environments are difficult to deploy and manage because of the new data and multiple systems. Without an effective unified environment, it is difficult to gain business insights in a timely manner. To meet this demand, Teradata introduced a unified data architecture. Teradata Unified Data Architecture integrates multiple technologies into a tightly integrated, transparent architecture that includes Aster sql-mapreduce, Aster sql-h, and the industry's best partner tools. This environment is supported, optimized, architected, and delivered by new and existing Teradata, Teradata aster, and Hadoop technologies. Easy access to and use of these powerful technologies also help customers find insights that lurk in large data.
"Apache Hadoop has evolved from an early stage of adoption to mainstream technology, so enterprises need enterprise-level, unified system management and need to be tightly integrated with existing analysis tools to ensure success," said Rob Bearden, chief executive of Hortonworks Corporation. Teradata provides world-class data management and analysis capabilities, while the Hortonworks data Platform (Hortonworks) provides unmatched reliability, combining the two to provide a truly unified, high-performance large data analysis architecture for the enterprise. "
Key new software
To ensure that the Teradata Unified data architecture is easily supported and managed, Teradata has introduced new software.
· Teradata Viewpoint is a web-based system management and monitoring interface that makes Teradata and Teradata aster databases easier to manage. The same management capabilities for Hadoop will be available in early 2013. IT professionals can manage and monitor the entire Teradata Unified data architecture using Teradata viewpoint, a single interface. The interface provides a comprehensive set of information components to monitor multiple systems while providing useful, action-directed monitoring and management information to all users.
· The Teradata Hadoop connector (Teradata Connector for Hadoop) supports Hortonworks and Cloudera. This new data connector product allows transparent and seamless data to be moved and moved into the Hadoop platform, where data can be stored and refined in Hadoop. There are two leading commercial Hadoop versions available for customers to choose from: Hortonworks and Cloudera editions.
· Teradata Critical Infrastructure manages the entire Teradata Unified data architecture and provides new support for Teradata Aster databases and Hadoop. Teradata Critical infrastructure ensures reliability by proactively monitoring events and identifying risks and system failures. This software is especially important when managing the Hadoop infrastructure by discovering up to 70% of incidents before the customer realizes it. Teradata Important infrastructure automatically sends reminders to Teradata Customer service representatives, and these customer representatives take appropriate action.
Quick and easy deployment
Teradata Unified Data Architecture helps customers manage and analyze large amounts of complex data. Within the Teradata Unified Data Architecture, Teradata provides two dedicated platforms for workloads to make the deployment of data analysis systems simpler, faster, and more affordable.
· Teradata Data Warehouse dedicated platform 2700-to make it easier to extract value from the data, the Teradata Data Warehouse dedicated platform 2700 improves performance and data loading capabilities, compared with the previous version, its performance increased by twice times, data loading performance increased by 4 times times. The Teradata Data Warehouse dedicated platform is a powerful integrated machine for optimizing Teradata databases, multi-core Intel processors, compression engines, enterprise-class disk drives, and storage subsystems to provide high-performance data analysis. This powerful data analysis platform does not need to be set up to run. The device can be configured to store uncompressed user data from 7 TB to up to up to terabytes per cabinet. Teradata Data Warehouse Equipment 2700 will be listed at the end of the first quarter of 2013.
· Teradata aster Large data analysis platform-with Teradata aster large data analysis platform, customers are able to get the most valuable insights from a wide variety of large data at the fastest speed, the industry's first platform for this capability. The platform integrates Teradata Aster and Hadoop servers in a single integrated optimization cabinet. Currently, other specialized devices on the market require experts and special interfaces to access and analyze data in Hadoop, while Teradata Aster large data analysis platforms do not need to provide a truly enterprise-ready solution. This platform consolidates the Apache Hadoop (Aster) database, Aster sql-mapreduce, and Hortonworks into a single interface to manage and analyze structured, unstructured, and multiple-structured data. The Teradata Aster large data analysis platform can be configured to store up to 5 PB of uncompressed user data for Aster, storing up to a maximum of petabytes of uncompressed user data for Hadoop. The platform is now ready to supply.
Without deploying Teradata Aster large data analysis platform, customers can benefit from open source Apache Hadoop because Apache Hadoop is easy to use for flexible teradata unified data environments.
"Big data is not about getting new technology, it's not about using old technology," says Mark Beyer, vice president of Gartner Research. The goal of large data is to find a way to create a set of common directives and semantics to manage completely different engineering solutions, new or old, just as these solutions are in an environment where such a management pattern becomes a new general state. "
Many industry examples show that these technologies are more valuable than any single technology after integration. For example, a wide range of industries, such as healthcare, communications, retail and financial services, know that when they try to tap into the underlying value of customer data, they need to face different types of data and multiple systems to make decisions. By consolidating data on customer behavior from all channels, such as store flow, call center usage, original web logs, and online transactions, companies can have a detailed and comprehensive understanding of the real situation. For example, if you find patterns of behavior that lead to customer churn, then you can act on this discovery to keep profitable customers. Companies can really benefit when consolidating data from all sources for analysis and clearly understanding which customers are profitable, the potential risk of loss for these customers, and the appropriate actions to take to retain these customers. Today, these things can be done using the Teradata Unified data architecture. The Teradata Unified Data architecture captures, refines, and stores detailed data in Hadoop. Then, a follow-up analysis can be performed by Teradata Aster to discover new insights. After that, the Teradata Database provides the information that is available for use by the entire enterprise.
"The Teradata Unified Data architecture has become a new general state because it brings more value to the enterprise than the total value of independent technology," said Scott Gnau, president of Teradata Laboratories. The Teradata Unified Data Architecture employs Best-of-breed technologies that help enterprise users get answers to questions quickly and seamlessly, regardless of what type of data the enterprise users analyze.
