Teradata Python package for Advanced Analytics.

teradataml makes available to Python users a collection of analytic functions that reside on Teradata Vantage. This allows users to perform analytics on Teradata Vantage with no SQL coding. In addition, the teradataml library provides functions for scaling data manipulation and transformation, data filtering and sub-setting, and can be used in conjunction with other open-source python libraries.

teradataml 20.00.00.00
  • New Features/Functionality
    • teradataml OpenML: Run Opensource packages through Teradata Vantage

      OpenML dynamically exposes opensource packages through Teradata Vantage. OpenML provides an interface object through which exposed classes and functions of opensource packages can be accessed with the same syntax and arguments. The following functionality is added in the current release:

      • td_sklearn - Interface object to run scikit-learn functions and classes through Teradata Vantage. Example usage below:
        from teradataml import td_sklearn, DataFrame
        
        df_train = DataFrame("multi_model_classification")
        
        feature_columns = ["col1", "col2", "col3", "col4"]
        label_columns = ["label"]
        part_columns = ["partition_column_1", "partition_column_2"]
        
        linear_svc = td_sklearn.LinearSVC()
        
      • OpenML is supported in both Teradata Vantage Enterprise and Teradata Vantage Lake.
      • Argument Support:
        • Use of X and y arguments - Scikit-learn users are familiar with using X and y as argument names which take data as pandas DataFrames, numpy arrays or lists etc. However, in OpenML, we pass teradataml DataFrames for arguments X and y.
          df_x = df_train.select(feature_columns)
          df_y = df_train.select(label_columns)
          
          linear_svc = linear_svc.fit(X=df_x, y=df_y)
          
        • Additional support for data, feature_columns, label_columns and group_columns arguments - Apart from traditional arguments, OpenML supports additional arguments - data, feature_columns, label_columns and group_columns. These are used as alternatives to X, y and groups.
          linear_svc = linear_svc.fit(data=df_train, feature_columns=feature_columns, label_colums=label_columns)
          
      • Support for classification and regression metrics - Metrics functions for classification and regression in sklearn.metrics module are supported. Other metrics functions' support will be added in future releases.
      • Distributed Modeling and partition_columns argument support - Existing scikit-learn supports only single model generation. However, OpenML supports both single model use case and distributed (multi) model use case. For this, user has to additionally pass partition_columns argument to existing fit(), predict() or any other function to be run. This will generate multiple models for multiple partitions, using the data in corresponding partition.
        df_x_1 = df_train.select(feature_columns + part_columns)
        linear_svc = linear_svc.fit(X=df_x_1, y=df_y, partition_columns=part_columns)      
        
      • Support for load and deploy models - OpenML provides additional support for saving (deploying) the trained models. These models can be loaded later to perform operations like prediction, score etc. The following functions are provided by OpenML:
        • <obj>.deploy() - Used to deploy/save the model created and/or trained by OpenML.
        • td_sklearn.deploy() - Used to deploy/save the model created and/or trained outside teradataml.
        • td_sklearn.load() - Used to load the saved models.


      Refer Teradata Python Package User Guide for more details of this feature, arguments, usage, examples and supportability in both VantageCloud Enterprise and VantageCloud Lake.

    • teradataml: AutoML - Automated end to end Machine Learning flow.

Release Notes:

teradataml 17.20.00.04
  • New Features/Functionality
    • teradataml is now compatible with SQLAlchemy 2.0.X

      • Important notes when user has sqlalchemy version >= 2.0:
        • Users will not be able to run the execute() method on SQLAlchemy engine object returned by get_context() and create_context() teradataml functions. This is due to the SQLAlchemy has removed the support for execute() method on the engine object. Thus, user scripts where get_context().execute() and create_context().execute(), is used, Teradata recommends to replace those with either execute_sql() function exposed by teradataml or exec_driver_sql() method on the Connection object returned by get_connection() function in teradataml.
        • Now get_connection().execute() accepts only executable sqlalchemy object. Refer to sqlalchemy.engine.base.execute() for more details.
        • Teradata recommends to use either execute_sql() function exposed by teradataml or exec_driver_sql() method on the Connection object returned by get_connection() function in teradataml, in such cases.
    • New utility function execute_sql() is added to execute the SQL.

  • Bug Fixes
    • CS0733758 - db_python_package_details() function is fixed to support latest STO release for pip and Python aliases used.
    • DataFrame print() issue related to Response Row size is greater than the 1MB allowed maximum. has been fixed to print the data with lot of columns.
    • New parameter "chunksize" is added to DataFrame.to_sql() and copy_to_sql() to fix the issue where the function was failing with error - "Request requires too many SPOOL files.". Reducing the chunksize than the default one will result in successful operation.
    • remove_context() is fixed to remove the active connection from database.
    • Support added to specify the number of Teradata data transfer sessions to open for data transfer using fastexport() and fastload() functions.
    • DataFrame.to_sql() is fixed to support temporary table when default database differs from the username.
    • DataFrame.to_pandas() now by default support data transfer using regular method. Change is carried out for user to allow the data transfer if utility throttles are configured, i.e., TASM configuration does not support data export using FastExport.
    • save_byom() now notifies if VARCHAR column is trimmed out if data passed to the API is greater than the length of the VARCHAR column.
    • Standard error can now be captured for DataFrame.map_row() and DataFrame.map_parition() when executed in LOCAL mode.
    • Vantage Analytic Library - Underlying SQL can be retrieved using newly added arguments "gen_sql"/"gen_sql_only" for the functions. Query can be viewed with the help show_query().
    • Documentation example has been fixed for fastexport() to show the correct import statement.
