Connecting to a Teradata Database

Connecting to a Teradata Database

Install and configure native client software on the machines where the Data Integration Service or PowerCenter Integration Service process runs. To ensure compatibility between Informatica and databases, use the appropriate database client libraries.
Install the Teradata client, the Teradata ODBC driver, and any other Teradata client software that you might need on the machine where the Data Integration Service or PowerCenter Integration Service runs. You must also configure ODBC connectivity.
Based on a recommendation from Teradata, Informatica uses ODBC to connect to Teradata. ODBC is a native interface for Teradata.
