• The DATA step and many SAS procedures have been enhanced to take advantage of the fast, distributed processing provided by SAS Viya’s CAS engine.

• SAS procedures previously only available in a SAS Viya environment can now be submitted from a SAS 9 programming client and execute distributed actions in a CAS server.

• In fact, any SAS programming client that can submit SAS code can include these CAS-enabled PROCs and distributed DATA step functionality.
