Active Data Warehousing™

A powerful trend started by Teradata customers and Teradata Engineering is known in the industry today by the common terms "pervasive BI," "operational BI," and "real-time BI." Teradata’s strategy for delivering pervasive, operational and real-time business intelligence is known as Active Enterprise Intelligence™. The backbone for this strategy is the range of Active Data Warehousing™ solutions we provide through our product and service offerings.

Teradata’s Active Data Warehousing™ product set offers you a robust, mature mixed-workload management subsystem. Active Data Warehousing™ lets you concurrently run multiple data load jobs, dozens of complex reports, data mining and hundreds of fast tactical queries while meeting service level agreements for your front-line users. Our Active Data Warehousing™ solutions extend the traditional data warehouse by enabling you to:

  • Provide analytic insights to customers, partners and suppliers
  • Deliver up-to-the-minute fresh data in operational reports
  • Develop new, highly competitive applications using web services, SOA and Web 2.0 technologies
  • Simplify the IT architecture and reduce costs by consolidating ODS repositories

"Overall, I think our Teradata Warehouse and using our active data has really had a very positive impact on Norfolk Southern."

What We Offer

Vital Active Elements

Your Teradata Active Data Warehouse™ environment focuses attention on six critical success factors called "active elements":

Active Access
Front-line users access the data warehouse for operational decision making with a service level agreement of five seconds or less (also known as "web speed").

Active Load
Near-real-time data enters the data warehouse via mini-batch loading, replication services or continuous streams of data from message queuing systems.

Active Events
Event-driven architectures and business activity monitoring detect significant business events and issue alerts for timely, informed decisions.

Active Workload Management
Dynamic priority management inside the data warehouse ensures service levels are achieved across multiple user communities and workload types.

Active Enterprise Integration
Integration tools and designs connect the data warehouse to web sites, portals, SOA, web services, enterprise service busses, workflow and batch systems.

Active Availability
Policies, procedures and redundant hardware ensure the entire information supply chain is protected when subsystem failure occurs.
