About Hyper-Q

Datometry Hyper-Q lets applications originally written for a specific database run natively on a cloud data warehouse. Hyper-Q enables enterprises to replatform to a cloud data warehouse without a highly time-consuming, costly, and risk-laden database migration.

Hyper-Q emulates SQL statements and translates data in real-time between applications and the cloud data warehouse. Specifically, Hyper-Q rewrites the SQL statement in a way to take advantage of the intricacies of the new destination system. The application, and with it the long-standing investment into its development, is preserved and disruptions to your business are averted.

Hyper-Q provides functional and accurate emulation of all commonly used Teradata features. Even complex features such as recursion or Global Temporary Tables, which do not have a direct corresponding implementation on cloud data warehouses, are emulated by Hyper-Q. Additionally, Hyper-Q supports loaders and utilities commonly used in Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) or Extract, Load, and Transform (ELT) processing.
