It wraps Teradata ODBC and REST Services to provide a SQL execution engine where developers write SQL and procedural logic without managing connection details themselves.\n\nThe package is now deprecated and abandoned, with the latest release on 2017-04-29. Teradata explicitly recommends using a newer implementation for new projects. The module depends on external Teradata system libraries (ODBC driver) and REST Services access, creating significant installation and maintenance friction. It carries no known security vulnerabilities but offers no ongoing support or updates.","worth_installing":"No. This package is deprecated and abandoned since 2017-04-29; Teradata's own recommendation is to use a newer implementation instead. The high install friction (external ODBC and REST Services dependency), lack of maintenance, and explicit deprecation notice make this a poor choice for new projects. Only consider if maintaining legacy code that already depends on it and cannot migrate."},"id":"teradata","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/teradata","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/teradata.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/teradata/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2017-04-29","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"teradata","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"The Teradata python module for DevOps enabled SQL scripting for Teradata UDA."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":87017,"position":13821,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"15.10.0.21"}
