Speaking to the media, Martyn Etherington, Teradata’s CMO said, “The largest and most well-known companies in the world have collectively invested billions of dollars in analytics, but all that time and money spent has been met with mediocre results.”   Chai Atreya, Director of Engineering at Teradata said in one of the sessions at the hybrid and multi-cloud offerings from Teradata are a strong differentiator and help “de-risking business decisions” for their customers. At the sidelines of the conference, Teradata also released a consumer survey which was conducted by the market research firm Vanson Bourne. This survey showed which bottlenecks and complexities still exist in the analytics ecosystem. The survey concluded that analytics technology is complex for many senior executives underlining the importance of education in the sector. 79 percent of the survey respondents also said that they do not have enough access to quality data to accomplish goals. The survey also highlighted that highly skilled data scientists are unavailable and business leaders are dependent on data scientists for insights.
