FAST LOAD is one of load utility used to load source data into Teradata Tables. Fast Load runs in !"ase fas"ion#1.Ac$uition !"ase 2. A!!lication !"ase. APPLICATION: For faster loadin% t"an any ot"er utility. RESTRICTIONS: Tar%et Table s"ould be e&!ty. Tar%et table s"ould not "a'e referentials#forie%n(eys) secondary indi*es) and tri%%ers.

T+u&! is one of load utility used to load source data into Teradata Tables. APPLICATION: T+u&! is used for continous loadin% source data into teradata tar%et tables.
