Migration of SAS environment from Mainframe to an AWS IaaS

Shreek — Sat, 18 Mar 2017 15:05:43 GMT

Hi There,

We are looking forward to migrate current SAS software that runs on the mainframe to AWS IaaS. Do we have any predefined documentation for the same?

Appreciate if you can share the same along with the major challenges that we may need approach catiously.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks

Shreek

The SAS Support Migration Focus Area is a good place to start:

Migration is a very broad topic. I suggest you ask much narrower questions to gain more valuable answers.

Hi @Shreek,

It is indeed quite a general question. If you need support on a general question, I would rather recommend you to get advise from SAS Consulting services and/or your SAS account manager/representative. I am sure they can give you great support and pin-point you to the right direction.

But if you already went through the general questions for any migration (the new installation, security/communications, data, scripts/programs, maintenance, costs, etc), and you got specific questions, as @SASKiwi correctly indicates, please do not hesitate to share them with us.

Thank you in advance,

Regards,

Juan
