SAS® Viya® Workbench:
The Developer Environment for building AI in SAS & Python
Hands-on Workshops
Cost: Complimentary
Calling all SAS and Python developers! SAS Viya Workbench is designed to help developers "get more done", deliver more value, and work more efficiently. Whether you prefer SAS or Python, discover how SAS is boosting productivity and empowering developers with greater flexibility through a unique experience on SAS Viya Workbench.
With Workbench, Python developers enjoy a true Pythonic environment optimised for performance, while continuing to use their preferred integrated development environment (IDE) and packages. SAS users will also be excited by this new offering. Along with the addition of new machine learning algorithms and synthetic data generation, existing procedures have been optimised for improved performance. Both SAS and Python developers will benefit from self-provisioned, scalable computing with on-demand server sizing to match workload requirements. Finally, an upgrade for coders!
In this guided session, you will:
- Learn about newly included SAS analytics procedures and the latest Python API for SAS analytics, inspired by scikit-learn.
- Discover how you can register your models into the SAS Viya Enterprise ecosystem, blending the best of open source and SAS' robust capabilities for MLOps.
- Get technical information and ask questions of our SAS and Python experts.
