Teradata
Teradata provides enterprise analytics and data management solutions. The Teradata VantageCloud platform delivers connected multi-cloud data analytics with capabilities for data warehousing, advanced analytics, and machine learning at scale. Teradata offers REST APIs for managing QueryGrid data fabric connections, running SQL queries, and administering platform resources.
Reference-quality API operations across every facet — a rich contract, published governance, transparent operations, and machine-readable commercial terms.
API Evangelist profiles Teradata the way a machine reads it — 65 machine-readable artifacts across 11 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Teradata scores 70.7/100 (exemplar), with a separate agent-readiness read of 60/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
How we profile Teradata
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Teradata. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 11
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Postman Collections 2
A runnable collection turns the contract into something a developer can execute in seconds. We profile them because the fastest way to trust an API is to make a real call against it.
Ready-to-run Postman collections for exercising this provider's APIs.
Teradata Query Service API
POSTMANArazzo Workflows 11
Real integrations are rarely a single call. Arazzo describes the multi-step sequences — auth, then create, then confirm — so both a human and an agent can follow the choreography, not just the endpoints.
Multi-step API workflows described with the Arazzo specification.
Teradata Auto-Install Node Software
Pick a software version, trigger an automated node install, then verify the nodes.
ARAZZOTeradata Build a Data Fabric
Create a data fabric, attach a network, and apply a communication policy.
ARAZZOTeradata Cancel a Running Query
Submit a query, check whether it is still running, and cancel it if so.
ARAZZOTeradata Import and Verify a Remote System
Import a system from a remote QueryGrid manager, confirm it landed, and diagnose its connectivity.
ARAZZOTeradata Submit Query and Poll for Results
Submit a SQL query, poll its status until it completes, then branch on success or failure.
ARAZZOTeradata Provision a Cross-System Link
Register a system, create a connector for it, then link it into a fabric.
ARAZZOTeradata Register a System in a New Data Center
Create a data center, register a system inside it, then bridge it to an existing system.
ARAZZOTeradata Review QueryGrid Environment Health
Confirm the manager API is running, list open issues, and branch to inspect managers when issues exist.
ARAZZOTeradata Run a Connectivity Diagnostic
List configured systems, run a connectivity diagnostic, then branch on the result.
ARAZZOTeradata Run Query in a Session
Pick an available Vantage system, open a session, run a SQL query, and close the session.

MCP Servers 1
Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

MCP SERVERPricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Semantic Vocabularies 2
JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.

Spectral Rules 2
Governance rulesets we run against this provider's specs — the automated checks behind parts of the score. Profiling them makes the quality bar explicit and re-runnable, not a matter of opinion.

Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.
Example request and response payloads for these APIs.
Security Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
