SYSTEM 2000^®

SYSTEM 2000 software is a user-oriented database system and a logical storage methodology for production applications.

SYSTEM 2000 software helps you get a handle on your expanding applications. Indexing provides fast data access, while features such as automatic data recovery and enhanced data security keep your data safe. And because SYSTEM 2000 software combines with other SAS System components, you have more flexibility than ever for new applications.

With SYSTEM 2000 Data Management Software you can:

• Provide a more efficient way to store data and quickly retrieve information
• Cut storage costs by identifying and eliminating redundant data
• Merge and preprocess several data files for an application before you begin your work
• Provide coordinated access to your data
• Prevent the loss of data in the event of power outage or CPU failure

The SAS/ACCESS interface to SYSTEM 2000 software (MVS and CMS) allows any SAS procedure, including the DATA step, to use a view of a database just as if the data were in a SAS data set. The SAS/ACCESS interface allows you to use all the familiar SAS system tools and also take advantage of the efficient data storage, multiple simultaneous accesses through Multi-User software, and integrity protection offered by the database management capabilities.
