The Data Scientist Learning Journey: How to Use SAS® Viya® With Open Source

This webinar series is designed for individuals who want to elevate their data science skills using SAS® and keep pace with the most innovative technology.

The Data Scientist Learning Journey

About the webinar

SAS Viya integrates open source technology across the analytics life cycle, so you can extract insights from data using your tool of choice.

This session is designed for both SAS programmers and Python or R users.

Join us for practical tips, whether you want to use SAS to speed up big data processing, collaborate with team members with mixed programming skills, or learn about open source code and SAS Viya.

In this one-hour webinar, Catherine Truxillo, Director of Advanced Analytics Education, and Ari Zitin, Senior Analytical Training Consultant, will share all the ways SAS Viya can be used with open source code and where you can find resources to learn more.

You will learn:

  •  About open source packages that empower users to work with Viya.
  • How SAS graphical interfaces can be used to compare results from open source code with results from SAS procedures and tools.
  • How to learn more about Viya capabilities that interest you.
