    Netezza vs. Teradata
    Original published at https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/should-i-choose-net Two leading Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) architectures for Data Warehousing (DW) are IBM PureData System for Analytics (formerly Netezza) and Teradata. I thought talking about the similarities and differences would be useful to decision makers who may need to choose or recommend one technology over the other. A few years ago, I evaluated the viability of Netezza and Teradata (shortly before the Aster Data acquisition), to meet my company’s DW needs. Both Netezza and Teradata follow the relational database paradigm and use table joins. My recommendation was Netezza, based on the particular DW use case and Netezza’s MPP architecture, in-database analytics, low DBA maintenance and price. Bottom line, Netezza costs less to own and operate, and is easier to manage. If your DW environment doesn’t need to support many thousands of users or ever increasing volumes of data, then Netezza is an excellent choice. Teradata scales better but is also more expensive and requires more skilled DBA labor. I recently spoke with a VP who migrated off Teradata to Netezza because Teradata was too expensive and required a lot more DBA effort than his company’s needs required.
