What is the use of Virtual processor Connectivity in Teradata?

- Virtual processor connectivity is a related to the Single-node SMP systems and it uses the Boardless BYNET.

- Boardless BYNET acts as a virtual BYNET that allows the simulation of the BYNET hardware driver.

- It provides the software for both SMP and MPP machines that run on the processes called as vprocs on the node that comes under the Parallel Database Extensions (PDE).

It consists of components such as:

- PE: that performs the session control and dispatches the tasks and allows the application to use the parsing functions.

- AMP: allow the database functions to be used to retrieve and update the data on the virtual disks.
