In its award submission, Teradata provided an industry case study that was representative of how Teradata helps communications companies migrate to an integrated, active data warehouse that leverages an existing investment in enterprise data warehousing, accommodates increased usage and supports goals to provide new business intelligence capabilities for marketing, fraud and other organisations within the company, according to Al Schuetz, the vice-president of Teradata's communications industry marketing group.
