NCR launched their new System 3000 range last week which comprises seven
levels of uni's, multi's and parallel architecures all based on the 80486.
The top two levels (6 & 7) are being built via a technology exchange 
agreement with Terradata (NCR owns 10% of the company). 

The marketoid at the launch had no information on the Terradata achitecture
except that it was parallel and was based on their YNet bus technology. He
also mentioned that the level seven machine, a massively parallel system
(1000's of 80486s') due for release in '92, uses a ByNet bus architecture. 
Unfortunately he was not able to provide any real technical information.

Can anyone explain the Terradata architecture ?

Thanks

Nick
