Solving the Agentic AI Governance Gap: Moving From Exploration to Execution

The enterprise landscape is shifting rapidly. Currently, 79% of organisations have implemented autonomous agents, yet fewer than 25% have operationalised the necessary controls to manage them. This discrepancy creates a massive operational vulnerability known as the “Agentic AI Governance Gap”. As businesses move beyond experimental phases, deploying AI without robust, enterprise-grade governance introduces severe commercial, […]

The Golden Standard: Automating SAS Viya Formats with CI/CD

Welcome to the final chapter of our deep dive into SAS Viya formats. In Part 1, we exposed the “architectural dichotomy” that causes formats to vanish between the Compute Server and CAS. In Part 2, we gave you the tactical tools (PROC CPORT, FMTC2ITM, and the CLI) to migrate your legacy catalogs. Now, we face […]

The Migration Toolkit: 3 Ways to Move SAS Formats to Viya

In Part 1, we diagnosed the “Split-Brain” condition affecting many SAS Viya environments: the architectural disconnect between the legacy Compute Server (which relies on disk-based catalogs) and the modern CAS engine (which demands in-memory libraries). Diagnosing the problem is one thing; fixing it is another. If you try to simply copy-paste your old .sas7bcat files […]

How can traffic planners plan this kind of transport system? By using the power of powerful public transport data analytics.

Reduce congestion with public transport data analytics

Data analytics may be the solution transport planners need to combat traffic. To reduce road congestion, transport planners have to find a way to make people leave their cars at home and use public transport. However, to accomplish this, transport planners have to develop a robust transport ecosystem that maximises traffic flow for thousands of […]
