Having Teradata in AWS:

• Helps us with connectivity.
• Making sure the data is secure.
• Reduces the hops.
• Helps us more with real-time data.

We had few reports which were taking more than 45 minutes. Then, with Teradata, we received results within minutes, and a few under a minute. We thought that something went wrong, and we hadn't done the work properly, but we saw the exact same results on both. So, our end users were pretty happy.

We are able to distribute Teradata in different regions to increase availability. As we are slowly moving everything to AWS cloud, we haven't had to worry about anything.
