But if you run it on small server, ie Windows
2000/XP with less than 1GB memory, Teradata performance is aweful. It hangs from
time to time and even some simple query takes considerable time, while Oracle
and Microsoft SQL Server never behave like that.

extreme parallelism:-) A share-nothing
architecture. and some specific software that takes advantage of a hardware
configuration.. It's pretty cool stuff for the high end in size DB's. I
have seen/performed several comparisons.. And when you are spinning thru large
result sets (millions of rows) - TD was the winner hands
down...
And
it's rather expensive stuff. They provide specific hardware along
with the software. So they would be a Hardware/Software
vendor
Jonathan is correct - WalMart uses Teradata.
so what features does teradata have that oracle
doesnt for VLDBs?

If they did, then its a good thing that they didn't name it
"TeraFile".

Isn't Teradata what Walmart uses? From what I know,
it's
always been aimed at the market for really, really
big
databases. Hence the prefix "tera", which isn't so
big
anymore. Maybe they should rename the product
Petadata.
