hi,

In one of the Teradata folders we found PERL components. We are planning to use this as a scripting language to access Data to and from from Teradata utilizing Flat files.

1) Is there any formal agreement of PERL with Teradata since PERL is a free ware that will justify our using this on the Production servers?

Our companies policy is not to allow any free ware on Production boxes.

2) Also, Even if PERL is allowed, is it a good tool to Edit and validate text files 5GB(22m records) in size to be finally inserted into teradata tables.

Basically is PERL-Terada a viable tested IT solution.

Thanks
