| Introduction to SAS Enterprise Guide Administration |
SAS
Enterprise Guide is a thin-client Windows application that provides a point-and-click
desktop interface to SAS (9.2 or later) and can be used to connect to various
server platforms, including UNIX, z/OS, and Windows. It communicates with
SAS to access data, perform analysis, and generate results (such as graphics,
PDF files, and HTML files). From SAS Enterprise Guide you can access and analyze
many types of data, such as SAS data sets, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, and
third-party databases. You can either use a set of task dialog boxes or write
your own SAS code to perform your analysis. The application helps users
to produce results easily, regardless of their SAS knowledge.
SAS Enterprise Guide uses a distributed computing model of network servers
that enable users to access data on multiple platforms quickly and easily.
