Woolworths Limited, one of the world’s largest retail groups, has upgraded the capacity of its Teradata Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW). 

The expanded EDW gives users access to data and insights to ultimately improve the overall customer experience.


The new solution is completely scalable and offers additional capacity on–demand, providing timely access to additional data and processing capacity without any significant disruption to the business.

Woolworths can now use the extended in-memory capabilities of the new platform which automatically places the most recently and frequently used data in memory, while still providing access to less often used data stored on lower cost storage devices. Woolworths can also cost effectively retain many years of data, an invaluable asset when trying to understand business and consumer trends.

Geoff Andrews, Teradata’s Retail General Manager, Teradata Australia and New Zealand said: “We are pleased to have been given the opportunity to extend our partnership with Woolworths.“
