Flexible Pricing Packages Tailored to Workloads and Budgets

Modern data and AI workloads don’t follow a single path—and pricing shouldn’t force them to. Enterprises operate at different stages of modernization, work within different budget constraints, and support a wide range of workload types. They consistently tell Teradata that they prioritize clarity, flexibility, and confidence in how they adopt and scale a data platform.

Overview

Teradata’s Select, Assured, and Sovereign packages are designed to translate our powerful, enterprise-grade platform into simple, intuitive choices—so organizations can understand their options in minutes.

Why packaging matters

Businesses don’t all start in the same place. Some are experimenting with AI. Some are scaling analytics across the enterprise. Some are running mission‑critical workloads with strict governance and security requirements. One size doesn’t fit all. Flexible pricing options help you choose the package that best aligns with your business needs, priorities, and budget.

Packaging enables a right‑sized experience:

Select provides access to pure elastic compute and the essentials to start quickly and affordably. It's ideal for innovation, new workloads, and teams who value predictable, transparent pricing.
Assured provides access to tenant-dedicated active and elastic compute in one package. It offers flex capacity standing by when demand spikes or a new use case arises. It also adds the capabilities needed for broader, more complex workloads.
Sovereign provides access to private compute, advanced compliance, and priority support. It’s for data that never leaves, by policy or by law. It delivers the full power, governance, and security required by the largest enterprises.

It’s simple, intuitive, and aligned to real‑world workload maturity.

How this benefits your business

Flexible packaging isn’t about selling more—it’s about giving greater control:

Choose the package that fits your workload budget and security/compliance requirements
Move up as needs evolve
Understand exactly what’s included and what’s not
Avoid overbuying or under‑buying
Get a predictable, intuitive model that aligns with how you actually use the Teradata platform

It’s pricing designed to give you clarity, choice, and confidence at every step.

Build a foundation for everything that comes next

Flexible pricing options help you adopt new capabilities, scale AI initiatives, and maintain greater control over costs as your needs evolve. They also provide the flexibility and transparency needed to align technology investments with business outcomes as new innovations emerge.
