About Hyper-Q for Google BigQuery
Datometry Hyper-Q is a database virtualization platform that makes Teradata applications instantly interoperable with Google BigQuery. Applications originally written or configured for Teradata can run directly on BigQuery without changing SQL code or APIs. To do so, Hyper-Q is situated between your database applications and BigQuery. Sitting in the data path, Hyper-Q accepts all communication from the various applications and translates Teradata-specific SQL statements into BigQuery SQL.
Hyper-Q provides full 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 BigQuery, 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.
