Tera-Tom here!  According to Safari, the top online eBook site in the world, eight books from the Tera-Tom series are in the top 500 books viewed worldwide for the month of July.  Six of the books are Teradata, but two of them are Netezza books.  The books entitled, “The Brilliance of Netezza” and “Netezza SQL” made it to numbers 200 and 201 during the first month of their release.

I released 14 books last year on Teradata, Aster Data, and Netezza.  My passion is and will always be in helping others understand difficult high-tech material.  Helping to solidify another person’s future is a very satisfying feeling.  It is important to me that my life has a very positive impact on our world.  What better gift can anyone give than the gift of knowledge?

How am I going to outperform last year’s release of 14 books?   By taking education for others magnitudes of order further by producing the best education videos the world has ever seen. I am now announcing the release of my “Lessons with Tera-Tom” video series.  The first 16 videos are released as of today.  The video series currently consists of Teradata and Netezza Architecture as well as Teradata and Netezza SQL.

Each video is about 30 minutes long on average.  I am the speaker in each video, and we used an incredible film studio along with amazing high definition cameras.  We then put enormous energy in animation so users could see the data, how it is stored, and exactly how Teradata or Netezza retrieves the information.  The combination of teaching and animation make these videos the future of education.  The combination of architecture and SQL knowledge make these videos worth their weight in gold!

If you or your company want to provide a learning environment for thousands of employees, then this might be the best opportunity your company has ever been presented with.  Imagine your employees having access to every Tera-Tom book electronically in PDF format and the ability to learn detailed information about all aspects of modeling and querying the data warehouse through outstanding videos.  This self-paced environment has been designed so students can become world-class data warehouse employees and leaders.

I have even created a game inside Nexus called Tera-Trivia.  This video game presents a series of chapters on Teradata Architecture and SQL to users and then asks multiple choice questions.  You have 1-minute to answer each question, and you get extra points if you answer faster.  But if you miss three questions, the game is over.  The game even tracks questions you missed so you can go over them later.   Show me a person who passes all 50 levels, and I will show you one of the most well rounded Teradata professionals in the world.

Sincerely,
