Usage Note 22517: What is SAS/SHARE software?
SAS/SHARE software provides a multiuser client/server environment for the SAS
System. The multiuser server provides concurrent update access to SAS data for
local and remote users across the enterprise. The server also provides remote users
with low-overhead connectivity for reading SAS data.
SAS/SHARE software consists of two procedures and a SAS I/O engine:
-
PROC SERVER is the multiuser SAS server; it runs in its own SAS session
and waits for requests from clients.
-
PROC OPERATE is the server administration tool: it will display and control
the status of a server, the libraries accessed through it, and the users connected
to it.
-
The REMOTE engine handles SAS library and SAS file I/O requests by
forwarding them to a SAS server. Combined with the SAS System's
inter-host connectivity, the REMOTE engine enables remote access to SAS
data; combined with the multiuser server, it enables concurrent update access
to SAS data.
