Course Offerings:

Integrating Java and SAS
In this course, we focus on guiding the programmer who has some knowledge of both SAS and Java^TM through the complex deployment steps necessary to build a working web application. We review the execution models for standard and enterprise Java^TM, covering virtual machines, application servers, and the various archive files used in packaging Java^TM code for deployment. We also survey the mechanisms available for using SAS services from Java^TM language and provide helpful tips for installing these services. We offer a detailed example to illustrate how a working application is created using the AppDev Studio development environment.

How to Manage a SAS Production Environment
If you are responsible for your company’s SAS application, you have, no doubt, encountered many benefits and risks associated with managing and maintaining this critical resource. This course demonstrates how to incorporate industry-standard testing and deployment strategies to migrate your code from a development environment to a production environment-one that includes a Java^TM application server and SAS compute and data services (also referred to as the Analytic/ Data Tier).

We show you how to apply concepts of software engineering and built-in alerts to reduce development and maintenance risks. Our discussion on alerts includes use of a practical design to monitor the conditions that SAS programmers frequently encounter. We explore the concepts of automated tests through assertions, events and their attributes, event status management, and automatic notification of events to interested parties. These concepts are presented from the perspective of the SAS programmer and the system analyst.
