- BYNET nodes
- Non-TPA nodes (used for applications, loading, connecting to the mainframe system, and so on); not common to every customer
- Ethernet or other connectivity hardware
The Teradata software components are:
- Virtual processors:
- Access module processors
- Parsing Engines
- BYNET software
- Database software
