Subj:   Re: Oracle to Teradata migration

I will try to make my comments at the fifty-thousand foot level.

Look into value compression as well as the priority scheduler which can make or break a warehouse. One for time the other for space.

Look into resource partitioning so you can tweak weights and move jobs/sessions across resources.

If you plan to use OLTP then make sure you have a sound backup/recovery strategy.

Reporting tools will use alot of volatile tables. This makes query tuning for these a bit more tedious.

Reorgs are called pack disk and spool space acts like a large temporary table.

Don't forget that statistics are important and should be a big part of your strategy for tuning the optimizer. Don't rely on random amp samples.

It would be a great to engage in technical services from NCR or a qualified consulting firm to avoid a long list of "lessons learned".


Cheers,

Mike Abbonizio
