Teradata::BTET is a Perl interface to Teradata SQL. It does not attempt
to be a complete interface to Teradata -- for instance, it does not
allow multiple sessions, asynchronous requests, or PM/API
connections -- but it should be sufficient for many applications.
The syntax is similar to that of DBI, but this is not a DBI module.

A SIMPLE EXAMPLE

$dbh = Teradata::BTET::connect("dbc/bogart,bacall");
$sth = $dbh->prepare("select * from edw.sales");
$sth->open;
while ( @row = $sth->fetchrow_list ) {
... process the row ...
}
$sth->close;
$dbh->disconnect;

PREREQUISITES

This module requires:

Perl version 5.6.0 or later
a C compiler
Teradata Preprocessor2 (PP2) for C

At present, the module has been tested only on Solaris, but it should
work on MP-RAS or other platforms with relatively few changes. Those who
are able to test it on MP-RAS, earlier versions of Perl, or other
platforms are invited to collaborate.

Hi Geoffrey

It would be nice if, in your docs, you could have See Also or Similar=
Modules,
and refer to DBD::Teradata from http://presicient.com.
