Best Practices for Data Sharing in a Grid Distributed SAS Environment

Tags: data

Overview Data volumes continue to grow at unprecedented rates. Enterprise solutions must be able to access and process this data efficiently, reliably and quickly in order to produce the results necessary to make solid business decisions. This is true for many SAS customers who look for ways to distribute both their data and or their processing to help them meet ever-shrinking timelines. The performance and success of a solution depends on timely and reliable data access no matter where it resides. Customers are looking to SAS to provide guidance and recommendations on configuration of distributed environments. This paper provides an introduction to basic storage terminology and concerns. The paper describes the best practices used during successful testing with SAS and clustered file systems.
