| Teradata Tools and Utilities | Provides utilities and libraries for integrating your Teradata system into your enterprise and streamlining the daily data warehouse management tasks, such as moving massive volumes of data, accessing multiple data sources in parallel, and improving your overall Teradata system performance. This software is bundled with Vantage but installed and configured separately. |
| Teradata Viewpoint | Provides a web-based management portal for Teradata performance and health management which is easy to use. It provides a consistent interface using configurable portlets which allows you to customize your own systems management dashboard. Viewpoint can be configured to support single or multiple systems. VantageCore VMware Quick Start supports a single system. This software must be deployed at the same time as Analytics Database. It cannot be deployed separately. |
