Teradata Vantage™ is our flagship analytic platform offering, which evolved from our industry-leading Teradata® Database. Until references in content are updated to reflect this change, the term Teradata Database is synonymous with Teradata Vantage.
Teradata Vantage™ on VMware is a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) operating system and Teradata Vantage packaged into a virtual container that runs in a virtualized environment on third-party hardware. You must have administrative privileges on the destination VMware environment to install and configure the virtual machines.
For each licensed physical core you purchase, you get two virtual cores.
The Teradata Vantage on VMware software consists of properties file, hardware configuration scripts, and a deployment executable file.
The product previously known as Teradata Virtual Machine is now known as Teradata Vantage on VMware.
