The power of Teradata’s high-performance
compute and ClearScape Analytics in a serverless AI engine designed
for data exploration, testing and experimentation
(Microsoft Ignite) – Teradata (NYSE: TDC) announced its
first serverless AI/ML engine in the cloud, called Teradata AI
Unlimited. The new offering, unveiled today at Microsoft Ignite, is
natively integrated into Microsoft Fabric and OneLake, which is
Fabric’s unified, multi-cloud data lake. By allowing data
scientists, data engineers and developers to seamlessly explore and
discover innovative new use cases, on-demand and using data at
scale, Teradata AI Unlimited enhances historical data platforms and
is designed to make AI innovation faster, easier and more
cost-effective.
The seamless integration of Teradata AI Unlimited with Microsoft
Fabric helps data innovators to operate at their best – with access
to vast amounts of data and unlimited flexibility to explore,
create and experiment. AI Unlimited compliments the mission
critical Teradata VantageCloud system managed by IT, expanding
governed access to data and ClearScape Analytics to enable new
patterns of innovation via free-flowing trial and error without the
fear of cost overruns.
Teradata AI Unlimited maintains Teradata commitment to an open
and connected ecosystem, offering the right tools required for
design and iteration of analytical models – speeding the release of
new products that leverage AI. When a prototype is ready, it can be
smoothly transitioned into a production VantageCloud environment, a
unique capability that can make AI enablement a reality.
“The ability to explore, experiment and operationalize new use
cases for AI initiatives without risk or restraint – especially on
a platform as powerful as Teradata’s – is a dream come true for
data scientists, data engineers, and developers. Teradata AI
Unlimited makes this possible while also supporting the goal of
enabling AI – driving massive enterprise value and breakthrough
business results,” said Hillary Ashton, Chief Product Officer at
Teradata. “We couldn’t be happier to be working with Microsoft to
deliver this AI engine for Microsoft Fabric and we are committed to
helping our customers build workloads that leverage the full
Microsoft ecosystem, from Microsoft OneLake, to Azure ML and Azure
Open AI Services.”
Teradata AI Unlimited for Microsoft
Fabric
Teradata AI Unlimited features the industry’s leading analytics
capabilities in a self-service environment through Microsoft
Fabric, with native integration to the Microsoft ecosystem. Users
can set up and deploy best-in-class analytics from both providers
in minutes and access all shared storage in OneLake. This is
designed to eliminate expensive data movement and time-consuming
data infrastructure management, allowing users to focus on
innovating and driving business success.
“Teradata AI Unlimited adds depth to Microsoft Fabric by adding
a powerful AI/ML engine to the end-to-end analytics we offer on the
platform,” said Arun Ulagaratchagan, Corporate Vice President of
Azure Data at Microsoft. “Together, Microsoft and Teradata make it
easier for customers to meet extensive analytics requirements and
gain more powerful insights through creative use of AI.”
Key Features of Teradata AI
Unlimited
- Flexible and powerful capabilities for AI use cases:
With Teradata AI Unlimited natively operating within Microsoft
Fabric, users can explore, experiment, and operationalize AI
projects at unlimited scale by leveraging a secure and seamlessly
integrated ecosystem. Teradata delivers parallel processing, the
ability to build and run models, and operationalize models at
scale. Users can access data in OneLake, Microsoft’s Open Table
Format (OTF) service offering. AI Unlimited also supports Open File
Formats such as Parquet and CSV with access from Jupyter Notebook,
Microsoft Visual Studio Code, or Microsoft Excel. Data scientists,
data engineers, and developers can leverage native integration with
Python to call analytics functions, execute Python code, and import
Python models directly into Teradata AI Unlimited. This enables
users to leverage their language and tools of choice. By connecting
the AI engine with Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service, users can
leverage large language models (LLM) to deliver analytic outcomes,
such as next best action, digital journey, and sequencing for
product recommendations. With bring-your-own-model (BYOM)
capabilities, Teradata AI Unlimited seamlessly enables users to
operationalize any model trained by Azure’s multiple Machine
Learning (ML) services - all executing and dynamically managed at
scale to drive innovation.
- Spin up in minutes, move into production when ready:
With Teradata AI Unlimited, users get a serverless user environment
that is transparently provisioned and accessed within Microsoft
Fabric. Users can explore data where it lives in Microsoft OneLake
and avoid the time, complexity, and cost of moving data,
integrating various data services or managing data infrastructure.
It also means users have the freedom to experiment without
impacting a mission-critical production environment. At any time,
users can smoothly transition and operationalize a prototype into a
VantageCloud production environment. Teradata AI Unlimited allows
users to focus on creating more business value for their
organization by deriving insights from large amounts of data
instead of managing data infrastructure.
- Minimize costs and drive value: Users directly access
Teradata AI Unlimited natively within Microsoft’s Fabric ecosystem
and pay only for what they need through a consumption model based
only on the time spent.
Availability
Teradata AI Unlimited is available today in private preview
through Azure Marketplace for select customers. The AI engine will
be available within Microsoft Fabric in Q2 2024.
