developers
MIAMISBURG, Ohio--(Business Wire)--
Teradata Corporation (NYSE: TDC), the world`s largest company solely focused on
data warehousing and enterprise analytics, today announced the Teradata
Developer Exchange, a web site which supports a thriving and dynamic online data
warehouse development community. It connects Teradata engineers, customers,
partners and academics who are building and deploying solutions based on the
market-leading Teradata platforms and database. 

"The Teradata Developer Exchange is the cornerstone of the social network for
Teradata technology experts worldwide. It has been designed for a digital
community, which is seeking a way to share ideas, code samples, and solutions to
problems," said Todd Papaioannou, vice president, architecture and emerging
technologies, Teradata Corporation. "The innovative and entrepreneurial spirit
of the world`s leading developers and programmers who are using Teradata can be
unleashed resulting in breakthrough insights." 

The Teradata Developer Exchange is a general source for learning and helps
Teradata users get answers to very specific and immediate questions. The
collaborative, shared environment provides participants the place to help
others, make comments, rate articles, blog and discuss relevant issues. Visitors
to the web site will also find programming code samples provided by Teradata
customers, business partners, and Teradata Professional Services. 

According to Papaioannou, "The Teradata Developer Exchange is unlike other
vendors` technical web sites, which broadcast outbound marketing messages to
customers. The Teradata Developer Exchange encourages customers` programmers and
data warehouse architects to make direct contact with the Teradata engineers who
created a specific product. In addition, customer developers are also able to
communicate directly with other customers. This communication and collaboration
will result in better data warehouse implementations." 

Teradata anticipates that thousands of global users will explore the topics to
be found on the site, some of which include: connecting data warehouses with
portals and web sites, campaign management leveraging Web services, Web 2.0
interfaces, real-time performance, revving up executive dashboards, optimizing
partner products for Teradata, cutting costs with data compression, Java inside
the data warehouse, working with Linux, mission critical data warehouses,
loading data in real time and open source extract and load. Teradata`s global
developers and engineers will continually provide new content and blogs on
timely topics.
