The sizes of the Teradata systems managing relational databases range up to 2,048 CPUs and 2,048 GB of memory supporting 128 TB or larger databases. The BYNET interconnect supports up to 1,084 nodes.

Database sizing considerations must take the following issues into account:

System disk contents

Data disk contents

Data disk space allocation

Determination of usable data space
