The topic of the thesis has been chosen based on efforts of an unnamed company for better data warehouse optimisation. Since the ETL process at the company has been changed, which led to the migration to Teradata database system, it would be appropriate to perform both the operation optimisation, as well as capacity optimisation. The first part of the thesis describes the Teradata concept and its architecture. This part particularly focuses on the Statistics which belong to the system operation optimisation. The main part of the thesis subsequently deals with Compression. Teradata uses several types of compression. The practical part brings the application of Multi Value Compression which has been performed via an appropriate tool. In order for the generated scripts to work correctly, they had to be adjusted. Additionally, defect reporting was performed and the communication with the development team also took place. The results of the table compression is compared with the estimations. The compression was applied on the production environment. The BLC process consisted of appropriate tables identification and compression testing. Based on the results of the testing, recommendations have been established.
