What Exactly Does SAS In-Database Really Mean?

1

Editor’s note: David Pope is a SAS Solutions Architect and is helping to support SAS at the M2010 Data Mining Conference working in the SAS/Teradata partner booth, highlighting our partnership and how SAS and Teradata work together.

The Teradata booth has drawn quite a lot of traffic and interest in “what exactly does SAS In-Database really mean”. I have had to show several different demos ranging from actually using classic SAS display manager to show PROC FREQ running in-database to higher level demonstrations of SAS Enterprise Miner publishing a score into Teradata using the SAS Scoring Accelerator for Teradata and then using SAS Enterprise Guide to call the function and run a Frequency report which can then be displayed in SAS Enterprise Business Intelligence interfaces like the SAS BI Portal.

Bottom-line: SAS In-Database offerings helps to open doors to all the capabilities SAS has from Data Integration, Analytics, Reporting, to Solutions that may take advantage of this capability behind the scenes.

  1. Hi Michele,

    Is there any article you can provide so that I can understand more about the topic of "In-database analytics"? Also, would it work with other database like Greenplum? Thank you.
