Enterprise Data Warehousing
Data warehousing is the process of capturing, storing and analyzing data to gain insight. This process is built on an enterprise data warehouse which is a single, centralized application-neutral repository of an organization's current and historical data.
Active Data Warehousing™
The foundation of enterprise intelligence, active data warehousing drives valuable information into a company's operations and to hundreds of front-line decision-makers. It enables smarter, more competitive decisions through near real-time information access and analysis and predictive analytics on customer or business activity. Active data warehousing supports both long-running strategic and short-running tactical queries. The active data warehouse provides strategic and tactical intelligence throughout the enterprise.

Active enterprise intelligence is the alignment of strategic and operational systems, people, technology and processes to make better, faster decisions throughout all levels of the organization. Teradata delivers active enterprise intelligence through real-time data warehousing technology, professional services and applications. Teradata enables its clients to convert information into intelligence, and intelligence into actions, leveraging existing operational applications and infrastructure.
