9.4M6 Forecast Server migration to Viya

YHelie — Tue, 25 Aug 2020 12:11:44 GMT

Hi,

Looking for any input of migrating Forecast Server 15.1 (9.4M6) to Viya. I know Viya comes with Visual Forecasting, but do we have anything new/different to migrate our projects.

Any insights appreciated.

Thank you,

Yvan Helie

Hi Yvan,

Please see the following tutorial for information on importing Forecast Studio projects into Visual Forecasting:

Additional tutorials and how-to videos on using Visual Forecasting are available from the link below:

Hi dw_sas,

Thank you for your input, appreciated. The first link (Import Projects from SAS Forecast Studio) is really what I'm looking for. This is a one project import, what about batch migration? We currently have a little over 300 Forecast Studio projects to migrate, so as a SAS Administrator I certainly don't want to go one by one. We don't have Viya right now, so the question remains on how easy it is to migrate all our projects.

Thank you again.

Hi @YHelie ,

Support for batch migration is planned for future releases.

Best Regards,
