Teradata Database release 15 allows language choice

The latest release of Teradata allows a choice of language to query the database as well as the standard SQL.  The ones I'm most excited about are:

• Java
• Perl
• Ruby
• Python
• R

Here is a link to the guide for TeradataR  - TeradataR 1.0.1 Guide

It also provides support for XML, JSON and weblog data.  This means that Java and most internet based code can use Teradata data seamlessly due to the object similarities.

Finally support is added for solid state drives.
