Building your pipeline or Using Airbyte

Airbyte is the only open source solution empowering data teams  to meet all their growing custom business demands in the new AI era.

Building in-house pipelines
Bespoke pipelines are:
  • Inconsistent and inaccurate data
  • Laborious and expensive
  • Brittle and inflexible
Furthermore, you will need to build and maintain Y x Z pipelines with Y sources and Z destinations to cover all your needs.
After Airbyte
Airbyte connections are:
  • Reliable and accurate
  • Extensible and scalable for all your needs
  • Deployed and governed your way
All your pipelines in minutes, however custom they are, thanks to Airbyte’s connector marketplace and AI Connector Builder.

How to Sync to Teradata Vantage Manually

Begin by thoroughly understanding the format and structure of the source data you intend to move. This involves identifying data types, data size, and any specific requirements such as encoding that might affect the transfer process.

Once you understand the data structure, prepare the data for export. If it's stored in a database, use SQL queries to export the data into a CSV or TXT file format. Ensure that the exported file is clean, meaning no corrupt rows or invalid entries that could disrupt the import process.

Gain access to your Teradata Vantage environment. This includes ensuring you have the necessary credentials, permissions, and network access to log in and perform data import operations. Familiarize yourself with the Teradata SQL Assistant or BTEQ (Basic Teradata Query) tool, as these will be used for data loading.

Before importing data, create the necessary tables in Teradata to hold the data. Use the `CREATE TABLE` statement to define the schema corresponding to your source data. Make sure the data types in Teradata match or are compatible with those of the source data to avoid type conversion errors.

Transfer the exported data files to a location accessible by Teradata. This could be a network shared drive or a directory on the Teradata server itself where you have write access. Use secure file transfer methods like SCP or SFTP if transferring files over the network.

Utilize Teradata's native tools such as FastLoad, MultiLoad, or TPT (Teradata Parallel Transporter) to import the data files into Teradata tables. These tools are specifically designed to handle large data transfers efficiently. For example, a FastLoad script can be used to import CSV files directly into Teradata tables.

After loading the data, perform checks to ensure the data integrity in Teradata matches the source data. This can be done by running queries to count rows and verify sample records. If there are discrepancies, investigate and reload the necessary data. Finally, clean up any temporary files or tables used during the import process to maintain a tidy environment.

By following these steps, you can efficiently move data to Teradata Vantage without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.

FAQs

ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps: 
1. Set up Azure Blob storage to Teradata Vantage as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Choose a destination (more than 50 available destination databases, data warehouses or lakes) to sync data too and set it up as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer from Azure Blob storage to Teradata Vantage and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.

ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
