SAS and Netezza: Integration
 SAS ® Access to Netezza
 Allows SAS to Read/Write Netezza tables directly
 Implicit SQL support which generates Netezza specific SQL
 Supports Explicit SQL support and Pass-Through which
  enables more SQL functions to run in-database
 Communicates with Netezza and leverages its utility
  capabilities for optimized extracts and loads.
 Some In-Database processing by supporting publishing SAS
  Formats into Netezza

SAS and Netezza: In-Database
       SAS ® Scoring Accelerator for Netezza
   SAS ® Scoring Accelerator:
      combines the statistical transformation and modeling methods available in SAS Enterprise
       Miner with the scalability and processing speed offered through the database system
      takes the complete scoring model code, the associated property file that contains model
       inputs and outputs and a catalog of user-defined formats, and deploys (or publishes) them
       within the data warehouse database
   Reduces Overall Costs: By moving the scoring function to the database, the common security,
    auditing and administration capabilities offered by the database are honored and leveraged
      Achieve higher model-scoring performance and faster time to results
      Increases Analysts’ productivity
      Improve accuracy and effectiveness of analytic models
      Reduce data movement and latency
      Eliminate model score code rewrite and model re-validation efforts (i.e. labor costs and error
       prone)
      Consolidate data to improve regulatory compliance
      Better manage, provision and govern data
   Bottom-line: Takes a SAS Enterprise Miner model and publishes it as a native database
    function (in your case a Netezza native function)                                               8

SAS ® Enterprise Miner – What does it do?

 Increase Revenue and/or Reduce Costs = More Profitable
 Three things necessary in order to effectively perform data
  mining
    Good historical data
    Strong modeling tool
    A Statistician
 FYI: SAS ® Rapid Predictive Modeler available in:
     SAS ® Enterprise Guide
     SAS Add-in to Microsoft Office (Excel only)

 Bottom-line: modeling tends to be used in order to better understand
  customers and as a result be able to be more profitable

  • 8. SAS and Netezza: In-Database SAS ® Scoring Accelerator for Netezza  SAS ® Scoring Accelerator:  combines the statistical transformation and modeling methods available in SAS Enterprise Miner with the scalability and processing speed offered through the database system  takes the complete scoring model code, the associated property file that contains model inputs and outputs and a catalog of user-defined formats, and deploys (or publishes) them within the data warehouse database  Reduces Overall Costs: By moving the scoring function to the database, the common security, auditing and administration capabilities offered by the database are honored and leveraged  Achieve higher model-scoring performance and faster time to results  Increases Analysts’ productivity  Improve accuracy and effectiveness of analytic models  Reduce data movement and latency  Eliminate model score code rewrite and model re-validation efforts (i.e. labor costs and error prone)  Consolidate data to improve regulatory compliance  Better manage, provision and govern data  Bottom-line: Takes a SAS Enterprise Miner model and publishes it as a native database function (in your case a Netezza native function) 8 Copyright © 2010, SAS Institute Inc.
