The use cases vary based on the projects. In most projects, I worked with ETL tools like Informatica alongside Teradata. However, there was a specific project where we built a real-time data warehouse for active directory data using Teradata. Oracle was the source system, with potential additional sources feeding into the Oracle database. We used Unix scripting to extract data from Oracle and leverage a colleague's expertise in Unix for the Teradata portion. We wrote ETL queries and performed data profiling before loading the data into the target data warehouse for further processing by other tools. Our task was to create a data warehouse, an active data warehouse in Teradata.
We used its capabilities for critical tasks, particularly in the realm of recovery jobs. We capitalized on the database's ability to transfer entire blocks of data rather than just transactional information. This approach, especially when dealing with block-level data, proved significantly faster compared to other techniques such as UBC WAN.

We use Teradata IntelliFlex for data warehousing, which is a way of presenting data for faster retrieval.
