[edit] BTEQ – SQL Query Capability
BTEQ, available as part of the Teradata Utility Pack, is a general-purpose, command-based tool that enables you to communicate with one or more Teradata Databases. BTEQ provides an interactive or batch interface that allows you to submit SQL statements, import and export data, and generate reports. BTEQ provides report-formatting options where queried data is formatted and returned to the screen, file, or printer. Scripts are sent from the client to the Teradata Database where the actual process occurs. You can also use BTEQ to import and export data between your client and database tables. BTEQ’s streamed package format design ensures fast processing and effective resource utilization.
