SAS Viya for Learners update?

[yabwon]

Hi SAS Team,

Short question:

The current version of Viya on the SAS Viya for Learners environment is 3.5.

Are there any plans to update it to the latest release (2021.2)?

All the best

I assume it will get updated at some point, but don't know the plans.

@yabwon There are plans for updating SAS Viya for Learners in a couple of ways, but timing for adopting v2021.2 (or later) is still being worked on. It's definitely on the roadmap though.

Hey Bart...

I am the Product Manager for SAS Software for Learners.  By the 'latest release', are you referring to Viya 4?  If so...the SAS Viya for Learners team is currently reviewing options for 2022, which include discussions about Viya 4.  Our top priority is to continue to develop and support a rich and robust Viya environment for Learners.

Thanks for your inquiry!

April
