SAS Integration Technologies
New business requirements demand interoperability between hardware platforms and software
systems -- a big challenge for any IT professional. SAS Integration Technologies is designed to address these requirements. It offers publish-and subscribe functionality, support for middleware messaging technologies and seamless integration to your enterprise by using industry standards.
SAS Integration Technologies software lays a foundation for standardized communications and effective information distribution. It opens new doors by enabling SAS applications to integrate seamlessly with other enterprise applications and systems and by providing a framework for proactive information delivery. SAS Integration Technologies:
- Supports industry standards.
- Utilizes industry standards for object transport, message-oriented middleware, and enterprise directory services making SAS solutions easy to integrate with enterprise applications and systems you already own.
- Enables users to create their own personalized information portals by subscribing to information channels and staying abreast of changes to pertinent topics as soon as they occur.
- Delivers information to the right people as soon as the information becomes available.
- Empowers the application developer or enterprise application architect to seamlessly integrate SAS applications with other enterprise applications and systems.
Support for Industry Standards
Conformance to industry standards helps IT departments control costs, maximize resources and respond more rapidly to changes in your business environments. SAS Integration Technologies software enables applications developers to build flexible, open information systems that can exploit different development languages while leveraging the power of a SAS enterprise server. This is accomplished through support for the following industry standards:
- Distributed object models COM/DCOM and CORBA enable applications developers to use an assortment of programming languages and development environments, including Visual Basic, Java, and C++, to write client programs that leverage the power of SAS. Maximize the use of all your resources to produce the best system for your needs.
- Enterprise directories provided through the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), they provide a common repository from which user, resource and security-policy information can be centrally managed. The wide acceptance of this protocol makes
it even easier to produce scalable solutions within a unified security model.
- Message-oriented middleware
enables applications to be integrated into broad enterprise solutions across computing platforms -- even if they are separated by technological, geographic or organizational boundaries. From triggering back-office events out of data warehousing processes to exploiting analytical services from line-of-business applications, message-oriented middleware has become the predominant technology for implementing industrial-strength enterprise solutions.
These middleware standards have extended access to and presentation from SAS software's decision support, business intelligence, and data warehousing facilities. SAS Integration Technologies delivers the enabling infrastructure that supports the next generation of solutions from SAS and delivers that same infrastructure to an enterprise's solution integrators.
Proactive Information Delivery
Delivering the right information to the right individuals in time to capitalize on newly acquired knowledge is mandatory in today's competitive business environment. Publish and Subscribe -- our proactive information delivery framework -- allows users to subscribe to information channels that pertain to a particular topic. In effect, they can create their own personalized information portals. Information is then pushed out as a personalized package directly to cons umers, who can receive it via e-mail or the Web.
This package can include almost any kind of digital information, including conventional structured business materials like data tables and reports, as well as unstructured information like word-processing documents, spreadsheets, slide presentations, and audio and video clips. In other words, it can include any type of information related to the topic requested. Publish and Subscribe, together with other SAS Integration Technologies, enables you to get almost any kind of information to the right people, including Web visitors and mobile phone users, just as soon as it's available.
