Hi Babiker,
"Three of them as one platform standalone computing" - by three I believe you are thinking, SAS, Hadoop and Spark. YES, you can have one platform with all three in it.

1. On SAS Viya architecture: YES, you can have all three in one Hadoop cluster (consider that Hadoop cluster as one platform, which can also have SAS Viya CAS deployed), if SAS Viya and Hadoop cluster is collocated. Check this like additional info: https://documentation.sas.com/?docsetId=dplyml0phy0lax&docsetTarget=p11kijnm0v2dacn1pz4udp570rj9.htm&docsetVersion=3.4&locale=en#n18ljy4lrskdldn1a1li7hlkr5dj

2. On SAS 9.4 traditional platform: You would need SAS Grid Manager with Hadoop. Similar to SAS Viya, SAS Grid can be collocated with Hadoop cluster with SAS installed. More info here: https://blogs.sas.com/content/datamanagement/2016/01/13/sas-grid-manager-for-hadoop-nicely-tied-into-yarn/

feel free to reach out if you have more questions.
