what is the SAS/ACCESS and SAS/CONNECT?

Answer Posted / wable

SAS/CONNECT

SAS/CONNECT software is a SAS client/server toolset that provides scalability through parallel SAS processing. By providing the ability to manage, access, and process data in a distributed and parallel environment, SAS/CONNECT enables users and applications developers to do the following:

achieve SAS interoperability across architectures and SAS releases

directly process a remote data source and get results back locally

transfer disk copies of data

develop local graphical user interfaces that process remote data sources

develop scalable SAS solutions

run multiple independent processes asynchronously and coordinate the results from each task execution in a client SAS session

scale up to fully use the capabilities of symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) hardware, and scale out to fully use the features of distributed processors

use pipeline processing (TCP/IP ports) to run multiple dependent processes asynchronously

collect the resources of multiple computers that work in parallel, which produces a powerful, yet inexpensive processing solution

manage distributed resources

perform daily or nightly automated backups

initiate transaction processing to a master database at a specified time each day

centralize and automate data and report distribution to workstations in a network

centralize and automate data collection from workstations in a network

SAS/ACCESS software

enables you to read and write data to and from other vendors' database management systems (DBMS), as well as from some PC file formats. Depending on your DBMS, a SAS/ACCESS product might provide one or more of the following:

a dynamic LIBNAME engine

the SQL Pass-Through Facility

the ACCESS procedure and interface view engine

the DBLOAD procedure

an interface DATA step engine.

These interfaces are described in this section. Each SAS/ACCESS product provides one or more of these interfaces for each supported DBMS. See SAS Engines for more information about SAS engines.
