Teradata Architecture: Open Source Web Content Management
Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) - A single node that contains multiple CPUs sharing a memory pool.
Massively parallel processing (MPP) - Multiple SMP nodes working together comprise a larger
configuration. The nodes are connected using the BYNET, which allows multiple virtual processors on
multiple system nodes to communicate with each other.
Shared Nothing Architecture(MPP) - means that each vproc(Access Module Processors and Parsing
Engines are Virtual processors) is responsible for its own portion of the database and do not share
common components.each AMP manages its own dedicated memory space and the data on its own vdisk
-- these are not shared with other AMPs. Each AMP uses system resources independently of the other
AMPs so they can all work in parallel for high system performance overall
A clique is a set of Teradata nodes that share a common set of disk arrays. Cabling a subset of nodes to
the same disk arrays creates a clique.
A disk array is a configuration of disk drives that utilizes specialized controllers to manage and distribute
data and parity acroos the disks while providing fast access and data integrity
-----------------------------------
The Parsing Engine interprets the SQL command and converts the data record from the host into an
AMP message
-----------------------------------
The AMPs locate and retrieve desired rows in parallel access and will sort, aggregate or format if needed
