There's no tricks, just treats in this autumnal edition of the SAS Viya Release Highlights Show! Grab some Halloween candy to snack on and join us for a thrilling look into the SAS Viya 2021.1.5 release.

 

Watch this month's show to hear all about Python integration in SAS Studio, so you can easily add Python code into your SAS work. You'll also get the latest on our latest third-party integrations including DataBricks + Synapse on Spark, automatically generated forecasts with natural language explanation, and all things VDMML from GANs models to lightGBM, astore options and bias assessment. With so much to learn, let's get into the details!

Here's what you'll see in the Rundown:

 

SAS/Access:

See how SAS integrates with two key data platforms in SAS/ACCESS, Azure Synapse and DataBricks on Azure, GCP and AWS to maximize data processing performance and minimize cost.

 

SAS Visual Analytics:

SAS Visual Analytics has introduced natural language explanation of your data in a dashboard, including recognizing when forecasting summaries are needed. Plus, added control over how business metrics are displayed and exporting report packages within UI.

 

SAS Information Governance:

Learn about SAS Information Governance and build on capabilities introduced in last month’s Release Talk like improved search for data stewards or data admins, including search for studio flows and control over user authorization in search results.

 

SAS Visual Data Mining and Machine Learning:

Hear about updates in SAS Visual Data Mining and Machine learning including training on lightGBM algorithms to develop gradient boosting machine models with open source, saving decision tree models as an astore, GANs for synthetic data generation, and assessments around responsible AI to determine bias in predictive models.

 

These are just a few of our favorite new features in SAS Viya 2021.1.5. We’ve made enhancements to several other products, beyond what’s listed here.
