performance considerations
SAS Visual Analytics was built for speed. This design goal was strongly applied to the SAS LASR Analytic Server, which is an in-memory analytics engine. Working with the full set of data placed in RAM allows LASR to crank through large numbers of records at dizzying velocities. And while LASR is certainly central to the performance of the overall SAS Visual Analytics solution, there are also other areas that you’ll want to consider when planning a new deployment or attempting to squeeze the most out of the deployment that you’ve already got.
This chapter will look at several deployment options that can have significant impact in performance of SAS Visual Analytics at your site.
