Hi, 

I'm trying to handle big data larger than memory in SAS Viya. My sessions were crashed when I try to load ~ 1 TB table into memory by SAS Code.

Is it required to load the data into memory for all data processing items? (i.e even sampling records) I cannot see any unloaded table in the caslibs in SAS Studio.  Is there any way to use data without loading in SAS Viya (or not loading all table at once )?

 

Thanks

Viya works in-memory. This means that RAM has the same effect on the maximally processible data as disk space has for classic SAS.

Shrink the data, or get more RAM.
