Subj:		Non-TPA Nodes Value and Experiences

From:		Coffing Christopher L

"The only dumb question is the one that is not asked."

Non-TPA nodes... How are these systems used?

I understand that non-Trusted Parallel Application nodes are systems attached to the BYNET and are part of the Teradata system. This provides for higher throughput for the attached non-TPA node and can also be monitored by the Teradata system utilities such as Teradata Manager and such. These systems do not run the Teradata database software.

Questions:

How are non-TPA nodes used?

Is there a performance gain in using non-TPA nodes?

Are non-TPA nodes a good ETL direction?

Recommendations on the use of non-TPA nodes???

What systems can be used as non-TPA nodes?

Any help and direction is welcome.
