I rate Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse ten out of ten. Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse is plug-and-play, much like Microsoft. It is a user-friendly and efficient product, and users will be pleased with its speed.
Teradata definitely does what it says, in terms of an on-demand platform, as it's a cloud service and it is definitely scalable. It's secure and it does provide scope for a lot of automation. The provisioning part of it, the administration and backup recovery as well as the analytics are some things that could be integrated in a more advanced manner. Maybe certain enterprise use cases need to be included so that users in an enterprise environment can build an analytics dashboard out of it. Support is good, however, the support requirements are not too much. Overall, the usability can be a little simpler. In general, we've been satisfied with it as a product. I would rate the product at an eight out of ten. I want to be a little bit conservative in my rating as I want to be sensitive to the fact that people really want to be able to do the slicing and dicing of data at a user interface level and to be able to see all the insights at once. At that level of usability, to be able to slice and dice, you need to give a dashboard to a user. If, for example, I have a certain type of organization that has a hierarchical organizational setup, I should be able to slice it to a specific group or a specific department, or a specific team. I should be able to see the metrics corresponding to that, or corresponding to the drilled-down data. While that's possible today, what I'm trying to say is that to be able to do it as a business user, to be able to use an interface in order to be able to do that kind of custom slice and dice operation and see the data in real-time, people are looking for more. Users want a level of usability from a business rules perspective, et cetera. That's something that people are looking forward to from intelligent and smart dashboards. It just needs to offer something that is much closer to capturing real-time information.

My advice for anybody who is considering this solution is first to look into the availability of customer support and make sure that it can be done. Teradata customer support in India is very bad. This is my main complaint. Fixing the problems that I have mentioned would make this a great tool. I would rate this solution a six out of ten.

What is a Cloud Data Warehouse? A cloud data warehouse (often abbreviated as DW or DWH) is a repository that consolidates data from various sources (including internet of things devices, relationship databases, and other data systems) and stores it in a public cloud. It is built for high-performance analytics, scale, and ease of use.
