June 28, 2006 at 10:31 AM EDT

DAYTON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 28, 2006--Teradata, a division of NCR Corporation (NYSE:NCR), announced today that Amp'd Mobile, a Los Angeles-based mobile entertainment company created to bring next-generation broadband wireless services to youth and young adults, will implement a Teradata Warehouse(R).

The first phase of the data warehouse will focus on financial reporting. Future phases will include many other subject areas across the enterprise such as product and customer analysis. "Once fully implemented, Amp'd will benefit from a centralized and consistent view of all of its enterprise information," said Ralph Vossmeyer, Teradata area vice president. "They will have accurate, up-to-date reporting providing them with detailed, actionable information."

By utilizing the Teradata Telecommunications Logical Data Model (LDM) along with Teradata Professional Services, Amp'd anticipates fast and effective implementation of the initial financial reporting environment, with the ability to support future requirements of their rapidly growing business. An LDM is a graphical representation of the detailed data requirements for an industry and business-specific data warehouse environment. The LDM specifically defines which individual data elements can be stored and how they relate to one another to provide a model of the business information. This gives data warehouse users rapid and accurate access to enterprise-wide intelligence for more precise and effective decision-making.

"We selected Teradata from among multiple vendors through our evaluation process," stated Bill Stone, chief operating officer at Amp'd Mobile. "What made Teradata stand apart was its consulting expertise, leadership within the telecommunications industry and global partnerships."

Amp'd Mobile will leverage the global partnership between Teradata and Sunopsis, a data integration provider, to implement a complete warehouse solution. The Teradata and Sunopsis combination provides Amp'd Mobile with a highly powerful extract-load-transform (ELT) solution designed to efficiently load and transform the large volumes of data from Amp'd Mobile's multiple outsourced systems. Performing the transformations in the Teradata warehouse leverages the power and scalability of its parallel architecture and eliminates the need for a dedicated transformation server, simplifying Amp'd Mobile's architecture and implementation.

Amp'd Mobile joins Teradata's growing community of U.S.-based and international telecommunication customers, which includes Verizon Communications, Belgacom, Telecom Italia SpA, Sprint Nextel, Vodafone Ltd, and many others.
