SAS Advanced Analytics Creates Value in IoT

With the advancement in sensor technology, high frequency-high dimensional data collection are more and more embedded as part of industrial settings. The bigger challenge these days, however, is to take advantage of these data to make better and faster decisions. One aspect of this challenge is on the hardware side related to the microchip technology and the computing power on edge devices, and the other aspect is the power of analytics to process these data and create value out of them. In this presentation we focus on the latter aspect and demonstrate how SAS tools are used to help different industries to make decisions in real time.
