SAS a Leader in 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools
SAS® Data Integration recognized for completeness of vision and ability to execute.
SAS Data Integration technology can speed integration processes by up to 66 percent. Breaking down data silos can help users boost productivity, access the data they need faster and be confident that the data is ready for anything. Instead of cobbling together bits and pieces to create a patchwork solution, SAS has built a truly integrated data management technology from the ground up to be seamless, reliable and ready to take on your biggest initiatives. You can access Hadoop and big data sources fast. And turn big data into a truly valuable part of your data integration strategy.
“We believe inclusion in the Leaders quadrant validates SAS’ solutions and continued innovation in the area of data integration and data for all,” said Kim Kaluba, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Data Management at SAS. “SAS tightly couples data quality and metadata capabilities to provide a complete and single solution for comprehensive data integration and data management. SAS Data Integration technologies support a hybrid, cloud and on-premises deployment model, allowing our customers to leverage a single solution for all their data integration requirements."

The biggest change in the market in 2018 is the shift from an anticipated future demand for metadata-driven solutions to a current market expectation that these solutions will be delivered as part of the data integration platform. There is currently no forgiveness for inadequate metadata capabilities. Another major shift is customers asking for hybrid deployment (cloud and on-premises), as in 2017, but now with the expectation of multicloud and cloud-to-cloud integration.
