Receives the recognition for the fifteenth consecutive year for Data Warehouse Database Management Systems
Teradata has been positioned as a leader for the 15th consecutive year in the new 2014 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Warehouse Database Management Systems.
The report reveals that “Entering 2014, the hype around replacing the data warehouse gives way to the more sensible strategy of augmenting it.” The evaluation notes the rise of new big data entrants to the space, and states: “The influence of the logical data warehouse has created a situation in which multiple repository strategies are now expected, even from a single vendor.”
Bob Fair, EVP, Teradata, said, “Gartner’s data warehousing report follows three 2014 analyst evaluations in which Teradata is rated a leader. The first recognition noted our leadership in database analytics, the second gave us top recognition for the Teradata Unified Data Architecture, and the third report acknowledged that Teradata is a leader in big data Hadoop solutions.”
Notably, Gartner has updated its definition of a data warehouse: “A data warehouse is a solution architecture that may consist of many different technologies in combination. At the core, however, any vendor offering or combination of offerings must exhibit the capability of providing access to the files or tables under management by open access tools. A data warehouse is simply a warehouse of data, not a specific class or type of technology.”
