Report on SAS Products and Business Development Approach

Task: To Learn About Five SAS Products

1. SAS Viya
2. SAS Visual Analytics
3. SAS Visual Statistics
4. SAS Viya Workbench
5. SAS Enterprise Miner

1. SAS Viya

 SAS Viya is a tool used by both data scientists and business analysts to analyse
structured and unstructured data and extract valuable insights.
 Provides a feature where multiple datasets reside, and users can select one via a
drag-and-drop interface to begin the analysis.
 Offers valuable insights without requiring coding, allowing users to analyse data
through advanced visual representations.
 Data classification is categorized into:
o Category
o Measure
 Users require a tuple set from both categories for effective analysis.

Key Features of SAS Viya

 Explain Feature: Automatically runs a dry analysis on selected data and provides the
best visual representation.
 Cloud-Native Architecture: Provides scalability and flexibility.

Scalability and Flexibility

 Microservice Architecture: Modular services with independent components.


 Containerization with Kubernetes: Utilizes Docker containers and Kubernetes for
orchestration.
 Elastic Scalability: Supports horizontal scaling to handle complex datasets.
 Multi or Hybrid Cloud: Runs on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, ensuring smooth
integration.
 CI/CD Integration: Supports continuous integration and deployment pipelines.
 API-First Design: Integrates with REST APIs.
 Data Analytics as a Service: Provides access to advanced analytics, machine learning
algorithms, and AI models through drag-and-drop functionality.
 Built-in Resilience and High Availability: Features replication, failover, and self-
healing capabilities.
 Security and Compliance: Includes encryption, Identity and Access Management
(IAM), and complies with GDPR and HIPAA regulations.
 Open and Interoperable: Supports open-source languages like R and Python and
integrates with multiple IDEs (e.g., JupyterLab).
Comparison with Competitors

 Advanced Analytics and AI Capabilities


o End-to-end data pipeline from ingestion to visualization.
o Supports over 180 advanced machine learning and AI algorithms.
o Offers Explainable AI for interpretability of models.
 Scalability and Performance
o In-Memory Processing: Uses distributed in-memory computing for faster
analytics.
o Parallel Processing: Speeds up data processing.
 Data Integration and Management
o Unified data platform with multi-source connectivity (databases, data lakes,
Hadoop, cloud storage).
 User Accessibility and Collaboration
o Role-based interface catering to data scientists and business analysts.
 Deployment Flexibility
o Multi-cloud and hybrid cloud support.
o Containerization for easy deployment.
o Open APIs for interoperability.
 Enterprise-Grade Security and Governance
o Data security, model governance, and regulatory compliance.

Technical Flow in SAS Viya

1. Data Ingestion: Collects data from multiple sources (databases, cloud storage, etc.)
using Cloud Analytical Services (CAS).
2. In-Memory Processing: Ensures faster analytical computations.
3. Analytics and Modelling: Includes data preparation, exploratory data analysis (EDA),
model selection, training, and evaluation.
4. Model Deployment: Uses SAS Model Manager and integrates with business
processes via REST APIs.
5. Visualization and Reporting: Generates dashboards and reports for KPI monitoring.

forecasting.
o Operations: Optimized supply chain and risk management.
o Finance: Enhanced fraud detection and financial forecasting.
 Approach: Use industry-specific case studies and success stories.

Data Preparation to Dashboard Flow in SAS Viya

Learning in detail the flow and how a data is prepared to the dashboards of it about the
SAS Viya: (Video Learning)
1.Data Gathering : There are information catalogues available which will provide aggregate
the data from all the multiple source and to provide a metadata in structured format from
which u will be selecting a set of data.-->1.Measure of completeness and 2.Sizing or
physical appearance of the file.
Here the example is the frequency of NPA where we need to check whether the target
variable have any interdependency with the source variable of the NPA ( To provide
dashboard for the limits of that end of parameter)
2.Data Wrangling : Generally this process consumes a lot of time by checking the important
source columns and also which is more dependent but to ease out we do have many flows
in the sas studios which do provide pre-coded flows used for data wrangling and here the
bigger advantage is that with those pre coded flows u can create our own flows and then u
can share those flows with our colleague.
Here we do get space to provide code in either sas or python or even in both with
integrating approach.
By which a bar chart in this case and depending upon the dataset the chart is provided with
the target variable from one set of source and then it do provide a feature to schedule the
job where u can repeat the same task with other source variable and gain insights and also
the check the interdependency with that variable.
