System Requirements
SAS® Data Quality Standard 2.8

Overview

To keep pace with changes to third-party technologies, SAS has adopted a general policy of supporting one or more baseline major versions, subsequent minor updates, and subsequent major versions for each officially supported operating system. Only the supported baseline major versions are listed in this document. The full SAS Support policy governing third-party software can be found at https://support.sas.com/resources/thirdpartysupport/baseline_plus.html.

As part of this policy, SAS strongly encourages customers to install the latest operating-system service packs.

Server-Tier Requirements

SAS Data Quality Standard Server

Select a platform:

SAS Data Quality Standard Server includes a SAS Data Management Contextual Extraction Language Pack of choice. It also includes a locale of choice for either the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Contact Information or the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Product Data. If nothing is selected, the English (USA) locale for the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Contact Information is included by default. 

On Windows, OpenSSL 1.0 or later is required. The OpenSSL DLLs must be installed in the Windows system directory or in a directory that is in the system PATH.

SAS Data Management Server Remote Function Call for SAP is included on request. It includes SAS Federation Server Driver for SAP.

 

SAS Visual Process Orchestration Server

Select a platform:

Note: On Linux, Visual Process Orchestration requires the libstdc++.so.5 library. If this is not found on your system, install libstdc++ or the compat-libstdc++ RPM containing the libstdc++.so.5 library that is appropriate to your system.

SAS Data Quality Server

Select a platform:

SAS Data Quality Server includes a SAS Data Management Contextual Extraction Language Pack of choice. It also includes a locale of choice for either the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Contact Information or the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Product Data. If nothing is selected, the English (USA) locale for the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Contact Information is included by default. 

SAS Metadata Server

Select a platform:

SAS makes the following recommendations for SAS Metadata Server deployments:

  • a 64-bit host system
  • a dedicated machine to simplify tuning, management, and diagnostics
  • multi-core server hardware because SAS Metadata Server is multi-threaded
  • four or more cores for production deployments

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 8 GB of RAM are sufficient for most large deployments. For many deployments, 4 GB of RAM are sufficient and should be considered a minimum, unless the specific deployment is tested and verified to require less memory.


Middle-Tier Requirements

SAS Data Quality Standard Mid-Tier

Select a platform:

Web Application Servers

When you install your SAS solution software, SAS Deployment Manager installs and configures the required web application servers and web servers.

To install these servers, select one of the supported operating systems for the middle tier.

Note: These servers cannot be installed on the z/OS or 32-bit Windows platforms.


Client-Tier Requirements

SAS Data Quality Standard Studio

Select a platform:

SAS Data Quality Standard Studio includes a SAS Data Management Contextual Extraction Language Pack of choice. It also includes a locale of choice for either the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Contact Information or the SAS Quality Knowledge Base for Product Data.
