Hi Udo & Meredith,

Great blog post and also thanks for providing your presentation at Analytics 2012. It was great to see SAS Time Series Studio... makes me think of Time Series Forecasting System for Big Data (and obviously hierarchical data). Any plans for including transformations/seasonal differences etc within Time Series Studio in the future?

The exploration aspect is much needed and missing from Forecast Studio and I would personally prefer to see these capabilities within Forecast Studio as sometimes as part of the exploration you quickly want to see the impact of an event or a model. I also understand the decision of separating exploration with modeling.

Cheers,
Michelle
P.S. Love the envelope display!
