Many SAS users don't consider what's happening behind the scenes when working on the software. Why would you? You turn on your computer, log into SAS, and work your magic. The latest release of SAS Viya undertook a major architectural change revolutionizing its deployment and configuration. The cloud-ready, open-source integration compatible software has embraced the cloud and modern application architecture and is set up for current and future technical advancements. Meanwhile users are still logging in and creating that analytical awesomeness.
We'd like to introduce the SAS Community to cloud computing, containers and Kubernetes for SAS Bowl X. We don't expect everyone to be experts, but a basic understanding of the underlying technology will only enhance and expand your SAS experience.
The event is scheduled for Thursday, June 24, 2021, at 10 AM ET.
SAS has provided many resources around these subjects. Below are a few examples to enhance your understanding of the subject matter.
Want to know more? Need more resources? Search the Community for keywords: cloud, Kubernetes, Docker, and containers.
For those who may be new to the SAS Bowl, you can find game history and specifics in this Community memo. There you'll also find links to previous events, which include recordings.
Add the game to your calendar, download the article attachment for an event reminder, or select the 'Yes' option to the right in this Community Calendar Event. No pre-registration is required. On game day, access the game URL, provide your SAS Support Communities username (so we can identify you when you win), and show off your SAS and worldly knowledge while competing for bragging rights and SAS Community game gear.
See you June 24th!
