SAS/ACCESS Interface to Teradata
This white paper provides an overall view of the SAS/ACCESS Interface to Teradata to relate the interface
to adjunct SAS products, to acquaint the user with the product, and to showcase its features and
capabilities.
This paper provides general and technical product information1, focusing first on the methods to access
Teradata DBMS data, and then comparing the product's functionality and performance to other Teradata
data access alternatives. Comparisons are made using a pro-and-con approach, expounding on where the
product shines and pointing out where the user can get better results by using Teradata utilities. This
approach is deliberate. Frequently, client applications that are compared to the Teradata DBMS promise
more than they deliver. The objective of this paper is to guide Teradata users or database administrators
reliably in their efforts to match software or a product feature to a processing situation.
