In Netezza you do not need one; believe me when I am saying you do not need dual in Netezza. When you are working on MPP appliance like Netezza, you can run your SQL queries or calculations without any dummy table i.e. dual table oracle.

Netezza LIKE Statement and Pattern matching Examples

The Netezza NOT LIKE statement returns false if LIKE returns true and vise-versa.

Netezza Fuzzy String search Functions and Examples

If you ever wondered how to verify how similar or different strings are. The Netezza SQL language supports two Netezza fuzzy string search functions:  Levenshtein Edit Distance and Damerau-Levenshtein Edit Distance. You can perform the fuzzy search with help of these functions. Basically, Netezza fuzzy string search function supports a search in a form of approximate string matching that is based on the defined technique or algorithms. These functions compare two strings to show how similar or different they are. These two fuzzy functions support only VARCHAR or CHAR data…
