Diversity

Empower all your teams to drive new insights.

Address the growing demand for analytics. Break down silos that inhibit collaboration by accommodating a wide range of modern analytics skill sets:
- Data scientists. Build models faster with access to data quality, advanced analytics and popular machine-learning methods. Code in your preferred language, and compare models written in SAS or other languages to find the best answer quickly.
- Business analysts. Access easy-to-use analytics via an interactive, visual interface. Prepare your own data. Collaboratively seek new insights. Combine text and structured data. And create stunning reports.
- Domain experts. Infuse data-driven insights into investigations. Uncover reliable results day to day with powerful analytics that keeps complexity behind the scenes.
- Application developers. Bring vetted analytical insights into your development efforts, using REST APIs to call to any underlying SAS method.
- Executives. Keep your finger on the pulse of your business with the knowledge that dashboards and command center metrics are tested, trusted and consistent.

Use a single, visual web interface for iterative model building across domains – from data mining and machine learning to forecasting and text analytics, and from exploration and discovery to statistical analysis.
Get maximum value from analytics, whether you're running in the cloud, at the edge, in database or in memory. Port models to different deployment environments without rewriting code.
Combine new, innovative methods with proven approaches that any analytics investigator (not just coders) will find straightforward – on a platform that unifies analytical assets written in SAS or other languages.

Scale

Solve analytics problems of any size or complexity across the entire analytics life cycle.

Empower your organization with flexible options and data-driven confidence – from a consistent, managed environment that scales to address any analytics challenge.
Quickly register champion and challenger models as part of a centrally managed inventory. Score your data in SAS, Python, REST and other languages in just two clicks, right from your model building interface.
Run existing code faster, loading data with minimal changes from your favorite SAS coding client. And expedite decisions from pre-existing programs and assets.

Easily automate tactical decisions from a shared, centrally controlled model inventory with integrated business rules. And realize analytics value from one visual interface.

Forge a resilient analytics processing environment. Self-healing mechanisms sustain high availability, delivering uninterrupted protection for 24x7 uptime from cloud, on-site and hybrid deployments.

Accelerate innovation cycles with processing power and efficiency that deliver answers from all your data – big and small – interactively, on a schedule or while data is in motion.

Trust

Get all the power while minimizing the complexity.

Consolidate, manage and monitor the processing of SAS and other analytical assets, with lineage traceability across the entire analytical life cycle – from data, to discovery, to deployment.
Centralize the administration of analytical workload processing with a single point of control. Take advantage of clustered hardware memory, and lower your total cost of ownership.
Safeguard your analytical assets against analytical talent attrition by integrating SAS and other languages into a single, underlying code base. There's no need to redefine, recode or reconfigure if your cloud provider, data volume or speed requirements change.
Optimize hardware use, and secure your analytical assets. Follow organizational standards for reliance and user access. Increase processing power as you need it. And automatically utilize disk space in constrained memory environments so jobs don't fail.

Avoid vendor lock-in with portable code that's transferable from on-site operating system installations, or from one cloud provider to another. Extend or switch IaaS and hardware as needed with minimal changes.

Be ready for anything with rapid, automated deployment, managed updates and independent microservices – plus self-service access that puts analytics in everyone's reach.

Develop once; deploy anywhere. Create organizational intellectual property using validated, cutting-edge methods to automate model comparison and reduce your coding burden.
