Teradata Named One of the Most Influential Information Technology Providers
CMP Media LLC’s Intelligent Enterprise magazine announces seventh annual
Editors’ Choice Awards and selection of “The Dozen” leading technology providers

Teradata, a division of NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR), has again been selected by Intelligent Enterprise magazine, a CMP Media publication, as one of the most influential global technology providers. The magazine’s seventh annual Editors’ Choice Awards names Teradata as the leader in customer intelligence.

Teradata was also named to the magazine’s “Dozen,” a recognition Teradata has received for the past three years. The Dozen is a widely respected annual evaluation by the senior editorial staff at Intelligent Enterprise citing vendors that provide exceptional vision, technology innovation and customer leadership in attaining the objectives of the intelligent enterprise.

David Stodder, editorial director of Intelligent Enterprise, writes in the April issue of the magazine, “Teradata, a division of NCR, provides the platform for many a mighty enterprise data warehouse. Plus, Teradata is no stranger to real time. The company’s ‘active’ data warehouse concepts and business integration technology partnerships keep Teradata’s customers on the cutting edge.”

Teradata® enterprise data warehousing and enterprise analytics enable companies to make better decisions faster. Teradata’s customers gain a critical business advantage from the speed and efficiency with which Teradata analyses customer behavior and other business information and delivers business intelligence to decision-makers – from strategic analysis for chief executives to operational intelligence for employees on the front lines.

“This recognition of Teradata’s leadership reflects the growing importance of enterprise analytics, which is a priority for businesses throughout the world,” said Julian Beavis, vice president, Teradata Australia and New Zealand. “We are very proud to be included in the Dozen for a third consecutive year. And we’re honored that the thought leaders at Intelligent Enterprise magazine have acknowledged Teradata’s leadership each year since the start of the Editor’s Choice Awards.”
