What Is SAS Visual Process Orchestration?

SAS Visual Process Orchestration is a web authoring environment that is launched from SAS Data Management Console. The authoring environment provides nodes that can be used to build orchestration jobs, which are process jobs that run other jobs.
An orchestration job can integrate executable files from various systems into a single process flow, as shown in the next display.

A single orchestration job can run one or more executable files, such as SAS Data Integration Studio jobs, DataFlux Data Management Studio jobs, SAS code files, third-party programs, scripts, and web services. SAS Visual Process Orchestration can execute referenced jobs in parallel; apply control logic such as looping and IF/THEN/ELSE handling; and handle events, error-checking, and run-time statistics for each node in the orchestration job.
