SAS is a command-driven statistical software suite widely used for statistical data analysis and visualization. SAS full form is Statistical Analysis Software. It was developed by Anthony James Barr and can read data from spreadsheets and databases. It allows you to use qualitative techniques and processes which help you to enhance employee productivity and business profits. SAS is also used for advanced analytics like business intelligence, crime investigation, and predictive analysis. SAS is pronounced as “SaaS.”

 

In SAS, data is extracted & categorized which helps you to identify and analyze data patterns.

Moreover, SAS is platform independent which means you can run SAS on any operating system either Linux or Windows. SAS is a generally useful statistical set of applications that helps with various kinds of analysis. In multivariate analysis, SAS can provide focus for analyzing comparisons of large numbers of variables to reach insights and sort through the “noise” of big data. In predictive analytics, SAS can take large amounts of information and build predictive models. It is useful for business intelligence and other purposes.

SAS architecture

Client Tier: Client tier is where the application is installed on a machine, where the user is sitting. It consists of the components which are used to view the portal and its content. It also includes a standard web browser that is used to interact with the portal over standard HTTP or HTTPS protocol. It also helps you to make the SAS web application firewall friendly.

Middle Tier: The middle tier offers a centralized access point for enterprise information. All access to content is processed by components operating of this tier. The separation of the business logic with display logic helps you to leverage the logic of the middle tier. Moreover, centralized points of access make it easier to enforce security rules, administer the portal and manage code changes.

Back tier: The back tier is an area where the data and computation servers run which may contain business objects. It is an enterprise directory server. The enterprise directory server maintains metadata about content which is located throughout the enterprise.

 

Why use SAS?

a) Enormous array of statistical methods and algorithms, especially for advanced statistics.

b) Highly customizable analysis options and output options.

c) Publication-quality graphics with ODS.

d) Widely used in many fields, including business and medicine.

e) Large, active online community.

 

What is SAS platform administration?

To put it in the simplest terms possible, SAS platform administration acclimatises your SAS platform into the overall IT infrastructure. People in this position often act as the bridge between the SAS platform, IT department and business users. Platform administration refers to the installation and maintenance of the platform and ensures that it is working in sync with the IT infrastructure.

SAS administration covers a wide range of responsibilities that include testing and upgrading the platform, evaluating the software for fixes, finding disk space for permanent data, analysing results and creating documentation for the platform. The ideal SAS administrator is someone who not only understands the SAS platform but also someone with business knowledge and an understanding of how the organisation works.

 

This SAS Admin course by Uplatz covers all SAS administration topics comprehensively and can help you become a sought-after SAS administrator from scratch.
