In a recent study, health researchers at the University of Michigan found that eating a single hot dog could take 36 minutes off your life.

Although it is a tough call, having your team use Teradata Studio as the primary query tool could be a better choice; however, a hot dog might leave a better taste in your user’s mouths.

Why would Teradata charge a customer $20,000,000.00 to buy an on-premises Teradata system, then tack on another $2,000,000.00 for professional services, charge over six figures for education, and then provide a free query tool for everyone?

Is Teradata possibly giving away Teradata Studio to show customer appreciation? I recently saw a Teradata salesman on a cold day with his hands in his own pockets, so it is possible.

Teradata used to charge for their query tool until we released Nexus version one 18 years ago. In two weeks, we release Nexus version 18.

Two great pieces of advice: Don’t relish eating a hotdog because your health is vital to you, your family, and your company. Eat healthy!

And although Teradata is one of the most powerful and advanced databases on the market, try Nexus, where you can query every system in your enterprise.

With a mouse click, Nexus can join data across all database vendor platforms. Like a Rosetta Stone for data, Nexus makes all databases speak and communicate together.

Who hasn’t needed to join data in a single query from Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Amazon Redshift and Aurora, SQL Server, Azure Synapse, or multiple Oracle systems, Teradata, MySQL, SAP Hana, Netezza, Vertica, Yellowbrick, Excel, Microsoft Access, or Postgres?

Nexus aims to allow users to integrate and join data no matter which database it resides. All databases are created equal!

P.S. I have written my 85th book on Snowflake, which is free to you, as are all my books. Please read the full blog on my website, where you can see the video of Nexus integrating and joining all cloud databases together in a single query. I will also have instructions for you to download my books for free (see bottom of blog).

I love that my 85 books have helped millions, so I am giving them away for FREE. Soon, you will be able to get my Databricks SQL and my new Teradata Architecture and SQL books. I am shocked at how robust the SQL features are on Databricks.
