My employer wants to replace our Teradata with Netezza.

Let me start by saying that my preference is Teradata, but my management has decided to make a change. So I'm in the situation that no matter who has the better technology or which one is easier to use, it's what's sitting in the computer room that matters.

I'm trying to get ahead of the change and I have a couple of questions - I'm hoping that somebody from the Teradata world has some experience that they are willing to share. So...

- Does anybody know where I can find a set of internet-based documentation? At the moment, it looks like the only way I can get a set is by visiting the salesman (and I just as soon delay that).

- Does anybody have experience in porting existing applications from Teradata to Netezza? We have a mixed-workload, with both MVS & network ETL jobs.

- How about administration issues?

- What gotcha's did you encounter? Anything else I should know ahead of time?

Thanks,

Anomy
