We performed a comparison between CockroachDB 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."CockroachDB is highly reliable."
"The initial setup and deployment are simple."
"The tool's most valuable feature is node syncing, which takes only 0.54 milliseconds."
"I use CockroachDB to test big data samples and to create the best structure for databases. We have four users and required 10 people for deployment and maintenance."
"The best feature of CockroachDB is the ability to keep the nodes in different locations."
"The availability and the easy to use feature is the most valuable. The documentation is also good."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its resiliency features and the geo-partitioning capabilities."
"The product has valuable security features."
"Teradata's capabilities enhance data management efficiency, support scalability, and contribute to faster query performance."
"There are several features of Teradata that I like. One of the most basic is the indexes. I also like that it provides lower TCO. It also has the optimizer feature which is a good feature and isn't found in other legacy systems. Parallelism is also another feature I like in Teradata because when you are running or hosting on multiple systems, you have this shared-nothing architecture that helps. Loading and unloading in Teradata are also really helpful compared to other systems."
"Teradata is a great, industry-leading data warehousing product that has MPP architecture."
"Things have started moving faster in my company, such as data retrieval happens more quickly."
"Improved performance of ETL procedures, reporting."
"Teradata can be easily used in ETL mode transformations, so there is no need for expensive and inconvenient ETL tools"
"The solution scales well on the cloud."
"Teradata can be deployed on-premise, on the cloud, or in a virtual machine, which means customers can move without having to create their architecture all over again."
"The platform could be more extensible."
"I find the serverless offer a bit confusing."
"We are looking for more features to support distributed high availability and geo-partitioning."
"The closer they can make CockroachDB to being completely compatible with Postgres, the better. It's almost compatible, but not completely. If it was, it would be nice to just be able to use Postgres libraries without any fiddling."
"CockroachDB needs to improve store processes."
"Cockroach does not support all types of protocols. I need to improve it myself to support a CouchDB on my network."
"The product must improve its disaster recovery features."
"The initial setup and pricing could be improved."
"It could use some more advanced analytics relating to structured and semi-structured data."
"Teradata can improve the way it handles big data and unstructured data."
"Data ingestion is done via external utilities and not by the query language itself. It would be more convenient to have that functionality within its SQL dialect."
"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."
"I would like to see more integration with many different types of data."
"Query language and its functionality are rather limited, compared to Oracle or even SQL Server. However, it is possible to perform any kind of logic in it (though some workarounds may be required)."
"It would help to make scaling easier with a reduced cost. "
"The increasing volumes of data demand more and more performance."
