SAS Social Network Analysis Data Management Standard and BI Server also includes a Quality Knowledge Base locale of choice.

SAS Metadata Server

Please select a target environment:
SAS recommends that you deploy SAS Metadata Server on a 64-bit host system. The SAS Metadata Server is multi-threaded and multi-core server hardware (typically quad core or higher) is recommended. A dedicated machine for the SAS Metadata Server is recommended to simplify tuning, management, and diagnostics, but is not required. The disk I/O performance of any server-class system should be sufficient. Memory requirements are highly dependent on the product mix and usage, but 8GB of RAM is sufficient for most large deployments. 4GB of RAM is sufficient for many deployments and should be considered a minimum unless the specific deployment is tested and verified to require less memory.

SAS Data Management Standard DataFlux Server

Please select a target environment:

SAS Data Management Standard DataFlux Server includes a DataFlux Data Management Quality Knowledge Base Locale of choice, which should be the same as selected for SAS Data Management Standard Server.
