Teradata Query Service (DIY) provides application developers a simplified, modern interface to connect to data from a web page or application.

To accelerate the development of external applications using a common interface mechanism to address Teradata Vantage, Teradata Query Service is a foundation for supporting Restful (Representational State Transfer) APIs into various Teradata products.

Teradata Query Service in combination with the REST API for Teradata Vantage:

• Allows SQL to be submitted to Teradata via a RESTful web service;
• Relies on JSON as the data-interchange format and HTTP as the protocol;
• Provides a new way to access Teradata Vantage that doesn't require a Teradata-provided client library or driver.

REST relies on a stateless, client-server, cacheable communications protocol which uses HTTP. REST requests are "stateless", which means that a specific request is self-contained and includes all the information needed to complete the request (e.g., login/session info, address, query) and completion of the request does not depend on previous or later requests.
