For information on Teradata’s proprietary temporal tables, which have different capabilities than ANSI-compliant temporal tables, see Teradata Vantage™ - Temporal Table Support, B035-1182. For more information on the differences between the two temporal paradigms, see ANSI Temporal and Teradata Temporal.
Note that most temporal qualifiers and query syntax that is used with Teradata’s proprietary temporal tables can be used also on ANSI temporal tables.
