CLOB LATIN/UTF16 is only supported on the Block File System on the primary cluster. It is not available for the Object File System.

Represents a large character string. A character large object (CLOB) column can store character data, such as simple text or HTML.

A CLOB column can store XML or JSON documents; however, Teradata recommends that you use the Teradata XML and Teradata JSON data types for that purpose.

ANSI Compliance

CLOB is ANSI SQL:2011 compliant.
