#TeradataPartners First day of Teradata #Analyst Days. First up is Steve McMillan, #CEO.

#TeradataPartners - Steve McMillan just stated that Teradata consultants will NOT compete with their partners. He wants TD to be a TECH company, aa SOFTWARE company, and a PLATFORM company — also a CLOUD first company and a PARTNER first company.

#TeradataPartners According to Steve McMillan —Teradata was rated as number 1 for traditional Data Warehouses, Data Lakes, Streaming Analytics, and Logical Data Warehouses, according to an unnamed industry industry. Wonder who the analyst was?

#TeradataPartners Steve McMillan, CEO, states that 75% of largest cloud deals were won by Teradata Partners…!

#TeradataPartners Quote from Steve McMillan: “Artificial intelligence without great data is just artificial.” True!

#TeradataPartners Michael Hutchinson (Chief Customer Officer for Teradata) runs consulting services, among other areas (like tech support). He stated Teradata does not want to grow services (Consulting) at all. He wants partners to do that. BIG change from the old Teradata.

#TeradataPartners From a Teradata - Forbes survey: 8% of respondents say data analytic initiatives or platforms are mostly or fully supported by AI/Ml today but… By 2030, 67% say initiatives will be mostly or fully supported by AI For high growth companies, this jumps to 76%

Interesting — the AI Alliance says the #GPU is by far the dominant training engine used today for large language models (Gen #AI) and training and inference. Agree?

Listening to the AI Alliance, made up of top #AI companies: IBM, AMD , UC Berkeley, Dell, Intel, Red Hat, and ServiceView. Fascinating discussion and direction setting.

Big fire in #Kapalua on #Maui. Anyone have any info on it?
