Teradata Corporation announced the availability of its enterprise-grade Analyst Agent on Microsoft Marketplace, bringing AI-assisted, conversational analytics directly into customers' existing Azure environments. Microsoft Marketplace is the unified online destination for customers to buy trusted cloud solutions, AI apps, and agents to meet their business needs. Teradata customers can now discover and deploy trusted solutions through Microsoft Marketplace, with smooth integration and streamlined management across Microsoft Azure and other Microsoft products.
The Teradata Analyst Agent enables business and data analysts to ask questions and explore data through a conversational interface, without needing to write code or build BI reports. The agent orchestrates complex SQL queries on the Teradata platform, performs iterative analysis, and surfaces supporting visualizations to help users understand patterns, trends, and outcomes faster. At the core of the Analyst Agent is Agent Telemetry, developed by Teradata to capture execution details for every request ?
including performance, estimated cost, model usage, agent orchestration steps, and user feedback. This makes the agent's reasoning and behavior observable and auditable, replacing ?black box? AI with a transparent, continuously improvable system.
Customers can also configure quality signals to monitor based on their business priorities ? such as detecting orchestration loops, identifying prompt weaknesses, or flagging hallucinated results ? turning raw telemetry into actionable intelligence that improves agent performance over time.
