SAS 9.4 Migration

If you are a SAS specialist or IT professional, the Migration Focus Area is your guide for successfully migrating your organization to a more recent release of SAS.

Migration is defined as moving a SAS® Viya® system from one deployment to another. The target deployment can be the same or a later release of SAS Viya.

Migration from a SAS 9.4 deployment is supported, but you cannot simply migrate from a whole SAS 9.4 system to SAS Viya. Instead, you must selectively promote content from SAS 9.4 to SAS Viya.

Where do I start?

The following resources guide you through the design, execution, and validation of your migration.

Find documentation and other resources to help you prepare for a migration to SAS Viya. Ready to migrate your existing SAS environment to the latest release of SAS Viya? You can request an upgrade. For more information, contact your local SAS office or call us toll free at 1-800-727-0025 (U.S. and Canada).

Benefits of Migrating

A successful migration enables you to immediately leverage the enhanced power of the latest release of SAS. See What's New in SAS.
