              entire document. The Gartner

The report positions vendors based on completeness of vision in the data warehouse DBMS market and their ability to execute on that vision.

Gartner noted that "The data warehouse DBMS market is undergoing a transformation with the introduction of 'big data' and the logical data warehouse demand for new techniques in practices and technology."

"Gartner acknowledges the impact of big data as a transformative driver in the evolution of data warehousing, and follows this statement by placing Teradata, with Teradata Aster - in the most enviable market leadership position," said Darryl McDonald, Executive Vice President, Applications, Business Development, and CMO, Teradata. "Teradata continues to stay well ahead of the market and innovate in a big and bold way - giving our customers a stream of more powerful products and services to integrate, analyze and drive the best decisions possible."

"Technology leaders introduce breakthrough 'firsts' in their respective marketplaces, and that's what Teradata continues to do," said Scott Gnau, president of Teradata Labs. "We believe the Teradata Database is the industry's most intelligent high-performance database for analytics, and the positioning of Teradata in the new MQ report echoes this and makes our case from an independent point of view."
