Overview of Configuring the Analytics Environment for a Remote Parallel Connection

The SAS/ACCESS Interface and SAS Embedded Process provide a high-speed parallel connection that delivers data from the co-located SAS data source to the SAS High-Performance Analytics environment on the analytic cluster. After you have installed SAS/ACCESS and its embedded process, you configure the analytics environment for the particular access interface that you will use with a shell script, TKGrid_REP.

For information about installing the SAS Embedded Process, see the SAS In-Database Products: Administrator’s Guide.
