SAS/ACCESS Interface to Impala Reviews & Product Details

SAS/ACCESS is a module which provides an easy method to connect to others database systems and allow integration of data extract/load via SAS programming. It's very simple to setup the connection to Impala and use all resources.

The performance and reliability is also a good advantage of using SAS/ACESS.

You can use DataSteps or Proc SQL for data munging inside SAS and create automatized processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a feature that make the connection to Impala very transparent using a libname so for security matters the developer needs to be always aware about where the data is being updated/loaded. Sometimes failures of communication between SAS server and Impala can happen and affecting the execution of processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sas is a great platform for pulling and working with analytical data as a computer tech major. It has many functions and you can use SQL in SAS which gives another language to leverage in terms of functionality. It is helpful for school purposes and most likely useful in businesses.

The one thing I dislike is the layout of the software, it is very dull. Sometimes when working with large amounts of data, SAS takes forever to load and can sometimes crash which is very hard when working on an assignment and it wasn't previously saved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
