A new in-memory business intelligence solution from SAS offers a highly visual interface to bring analytics to a broader class of users. SAS Visual Analytics is the newest product in the SAS high-performance analytics group.

With SAS Visual Analytics, organizations can:

  • Apply SAS Analytics to massive amounts of data.
  • Visually explore data at the speed of sight.
  • Share fresh insights with everyone, everywhere, via the Web or iPad.

SAS Visual Analytics combines in-memory architecture, intuitive data exploration, Hadoop support and information-delivery options, including the iPad. It is designed specifically for business visualization of big data on inexpensive, nonproprietary hardware.

“The speed of in-memory architecture offers tremendous benefit. Organizations can explore huge data volumes and get answers to critical questions in near-real time,” says Dan Vesset, program vice president of IDC's business analytics research. “SAS Visual Analytics offers a double bonus: the speed of in-memory analytics plus self-service eliminates the traditional wait for IT-generated reports. Businesses today must base decisions on insight gleaned from data, and that process needs to be close to instantaneous.”
