The Teradata Data Warehouse Appliance 2800 platform is an optimized, fully-integrated data warehouse solution designed to meet entry-level data warehousing and analytical decision support requirements, typically requiring fast data scans and heavy analytics.

The 2800 platform offers 4+0 and 2+0 clique options. A 4+0 clique consists of four processing nodes attached to two disk arrays. A 2+0 clique consists of two processing nodes attached to one disk array. Each disk array consists of two drive enclosures, one with controllers and one with ESMs. The clique configurations create a CPU-rich environment, designed to support database compression and analytic features.

The 2800 platform can scale up to 324 nodes with BYNET V5.

The following can be optionally added to the 2800 base cabinet (depending on cabinet configuration and power type):
  • A second 2800 system (either a 4+0 or 2+0 clique)
  • One or two 680 systems (with one processing node and one disk array)
  • Up to two Quantum i80 tape libraries for backup and restore functionality and two optional Scalar key manager servers. One TMS BAR is permitted in the cabinet for the Scalar i80 BAR tape library configuration options.
  • One Data Domain DD4200 and one ES30 expansion shelf, plus one to three additional optional ES30 expansion shelves for backup and restore functionality. One TMS BAR is permitted in the cabinet for the Data Domain DD4200 and ES30 options.
  • Channel servers, ECS servers, NCS servers, SAS HPA worker nodes, TMSs, and/or TMSSs in any combination.
