"From Teradata's perspective, of the 17 vendors evaluated for the 2022 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Cloud Database Management Systems for Analytical Use Cases, Teradata — with ClearScape Analytics' powerful in-database functionality, open and connected integrations, and robust operationalisation features — demonstrates an unrivaled capacity to meet customers' evolving and multifaceted analytical needs," it explains.

"We believe that we have the most powerful cloud analytics and data platform -- one that enables data warehouse, data lake, and lakehouse design patterns at massive scale -- giving our customers the flexibility they need to execute mission-critical workloads that address the full spectrum of their needs," he says.

"Gartner recognition validates our differentiated, open, and customer-centric approach of delivering real-time insights and optimised results to customers wherever they are on their digital transformation journey.

"We also vastly increased our in-database analytic functions – far beyond any competitor – with ClearScape Analytics," he says.
