Migrating Workloads
When determining which analytic workloads to migrate to Azure first, Teradata recommends starting with something that is not mission-critical. Ideal first workloads are test, development, and discovery analytics. Migration of these workloads carries the lowest risk and will prevent users from spending more time and money than necessary while getting familiar with the capabilities and performance of Vantage on Azure (DIY). Then, once there’s comfort that first workloads are functioning properly, plan the migration of other use cases.
