SAS Licensing/Bundling Changes, 9.3 and others

There seems to be a lot of movement in the the way SAS are bundling and licensing the multitude of SAS solutions and products at the moment.

Here are the changes I think I heard before and during the SAS Global Forum (as always please check with your SAS Account team to confirm the details)

  • SAS Data Integration Server now includes the ability to use Dataflux for profiling only (used to have to have eDI to use any dataflux)
  • SAS eDI Server 9.3 will move to bundling Dataflux Data Management studio rather than the dfPower studio that is bundles in 9.2.
  • SAS has released a AMO only bundle (SAS® Office Analytics for Midsize Business), enabling you to use AMO without needing to license the Business Intelligence server (BI Server) and it even bundles Enterprise Guide and STAT in it as well!
  • Some functions from SAS Graph/ODS are being bundled with SAS Foundation (Base) without the need to license SAS Graph
  • JMP is bundled with Enterprise Miner (Not sure if its only with 9.3 or all versions)

Those are the ones I can remember hearing or reading about, if I find anymore Ill update the post and of course if you know of any changes comment away!
