SAS Viya is a cloud-native analytics and AI platform that unifies data integration, model development, lifecycle management, and operational decisioning into a single, scalable environment. With support for SAS and Python, open APIs, and low-code visual pipelines, Viya accelerates analytics delivery while strengthening governance and performance across the enterprise.
Organizations increasingly rely on analytics and machine learning to drive decisions, yet most operate with fragmented tools, inconsistent processes, and siloed data. Data scientists and analysts struggle to move models from development to production, while business and risk teams lack transparency into model behavior, lineage, and performance. Regulatory expectations around model governance continue to rise, and legacy platforms cannot meet the requirements for scale, auditability, and operational efficiency.
How can SAS Viya help?
SAS Viya solves these challenges by providing a unified platform built for modern analytics operations. Model Manager delivers complete lifecycle governance—from inventory and documentation to validation, approvals, deployment, and monitoring. Visual data integration flows allow teams to ingest, transform, and orchestrate data across cloud and on-premise sources without relying on brittle, manual pipelines. Developers can work interchangeably in SAS, Python, R, and SQL, while Viya’s open APIs and SAS Studio Flow (visual pipelines) streamline collaboration and productionization. The result is an integrated foundation where data, models, and decisions operate coherently.
SureStep + SAS
SureStep implements SAS Viya with a structured approach that connects platform capabilities to your business, data, and governance needs. We configure model inventories, lifecycle workflows, approvals, and automated monitoring, ensuring alignment with model risk, compliance, and AI governance expectations. Our team sets up scalable data flows, integrates Viya with cloud data platforms, and enables Python/SAS hybrid development environments that match your analytic operating model. We also support deployment patterns—APIs, containers, real-time decisioning—and embed the platform into your existing risk, fraud, and compliance processes.
Increase ROI from your Data Systems
The value is immediate and substantial. Organizations gain faster model delivery, unified governance, and a consistent pipeline from data to insight to decision. Analysts and data scientists collaborate more effectively across languages and tooling; risk and compliance teams gain transparency and traceability; and business leaders benefit from reliable, high-quality analytics grounded in a scalable, cloud-native platform. SAS Viya ultimately accelerates innovation while strengthening oversight—enabling institutions to move from fragmented analytics to a fully governed, enterprise-grade AI and data ecosystem.
