If you’ve ever attended a presentation or webinar from Margaret Crevar, you know you’re in for a treat with this topic. Margaret’s extensive knowledge and experience with SAS admins makes her the perfect person to walk you through choosing a hardware infrastructure for your SAS applications. She’ll help you gain a solid understanding of all the layers and components of the SAS infrastructure.

 

This 22-minute video discusses important performance considerations for SAS®9 (including SAS® Grid Manager) and SAS® Viya® when hosted in any of the available public clouds—Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and so on. It also provides guidance on how to configure the cloud infrastructure to maximize performance with SAS.
