Teradata partners with Siemens for big data in utility sector

Miami Twp.-based data warehousing company Teradata on Monday announced a global strategic partnership with Siemens Smart Grid Division in the field of big data, according to a media release.

Officials said the technology will provide energy utilities with a higher level of transparency on the status and activities of their networks. This will allow Siemens Smart Grid customers to improve the reliability of their infrastructure and to run their grids more efficiently in an increasingly cost-sensitive environment, officials said.

Siemens and Teradata will be the first to offer end-to-end integration of operational data with smart meter data for analysis on a single platform, officials said.

The Siemens Smart Grid Division, based in Nuremberg, Germany, supplies power providers, industrial companies and cities with products and services for intelligent and flexible network infrastructures.

Earlier this month, Teradata announced that Pacific Gas and Electric Co. (PG&E) had selected Teradata to provide it with “smart meter” high-volume data analytics. PG&E provides natural gas and electric service to about 15 million people throughout a 70,000-square-mile service area in northern and central California.

Teradata has about 350 employees at its world headquarters in Miami Twp.
