Overview of Publishing a Scoring Function

SAS Model Manager enables you to publish models that are associated with the Data Step score code type to a configured database. When you publish a scoring function for a project, SAS Model Manager exports the project's champion model to the SAS Metadata Repository. The SAS Scoring Accelerator then creates scoring functions in the default version that can be deployed inside the database based on the project's champion model score code. The scoring function can be validated automatically against a default train table to ensure that the scoring results are correct. A scoring application or SQL code can then execute the scoring functions in the database. The scoring functions extend the database's SQL language and can be used in SQL statements in the same way as other database functions. For more information, see Publish Scoring Functions in SAS Model Manager: User's Guide.

This tutorial shows you the tasks that are involved in publishing a project champion model to a database. It contains examples and step-by-step directions about preparing a database for use with SAS Model Manager and publishing a scoring function.
