Teradata offers solutions to keep your data warehouse or data lakehouse in the three leading Service Cloud Providers: AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform. The umbrella term for this offering is VantageCloud.
- VantageCloud Enterprise (VCE) is the solution to hosting large data warehouses in the cloud. It is meant to optimise performance and uses the traditional Teradata architecture.
- VantageCloud Lake (VCL) is the Teradata cloud-native database. It is ideal for both data lakehouses and data warehouses. Furthermore, Lake is built to optimise cost storage while speeding up the response to your critical queries.
Enterprise and Lake offer the complete set of Teradata analytic functions for Machine Learning, Data Science, and traditional reporting in a bundle called ClearScape Analytics.
I gather high-resolution infographics and cheat sheets in this repository, each dedicated to explaining a VantageCloud Enterprise feature or the different setup options.
I published every infographic in separate posts on my blog with some further details. You have below a list with every article and a summary of its content:
