Answer Posted / aruna

SAS is an ETL, Reporting and Analysis tool, you can do all
these three functionalities with SAS.

front is also provided by SAS,

For backend, SAS has it's own database (in the form of
DATASETS) and also you can connect to any database as
backend like oracle, DB2, Teradata Etc..

Hope this helps.
