Business Intelligence Tool

 

  • Improves the performance and scalability of your applications: Progress DataDirect's ODBC driver for Teradata delivers the faster response times and massive scalability needed for business critical enterprise data warehouse applications.
  • Provides comprehensive coverage from one vendor: Only Progress DataDirect offers an ODBC driver for Teradata on every major platform – Windows and Unix/Linux, including UNIX platforms such as IBM AIX, HP-UX, and Sun Solaris, across a wide range of processor architectures. We also offer a 64-bit ODBC driver so your 64-bit applications can take full advantage of the faster processing speeds.
  • Guarantees reliability for demanding production environments: Progress DataDirect ODBC drivers are quality tested and certified with a wide variety of applications and environments using the Progress DataDirect ODBC Verification Suite (OVS), the largest, most mature ODBC testing infrastructure.
  • Offers 100% specification compliance and robust functionality: Progress DataDirect’s ODBC driver for the Teradata database provides the same advanced feature set of our industry-standard ODBC drivers, offering robust functionality, such as single sign-on, data encryption, comprehensive support for Teradata data types, and extensive Unicode support.
  • Reduces total cost of ownership through superior technical support: In contrast to database vendors and other third-party vendors, Progress DataDirect’s award-winning support is focused exclusively on data connectivity and includes 24x7 phone, web, email, forum, fax, and an extensive knowledgebase. Resolving data connectivity issues quickly reduces the total cost of ownership of software.
  • Makes it easy and cost effective to support multiple databases / database versions: SQL up-leveling and other interoperability features allow applications to support multiple databases (Teradata, Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, Sybase, and more).

Many of Progress DataDirect product features are 100% driver implemented, which means they do not require changes to application code or proprietary Teradata extensions in order to be leveraged quickly.
