SAS/Warehouse Administrator

Develop a Data Warehouse

Note: For more information and step-by-step instructions, see the online tutorial Getting Started with SAS/Warehouse Administrator.

To develop a data warehouse within SAS/Warehouse Administrator, you must first create a data warehouse environment.

In order to load a warehouse environment into SAS Scientific Discovery Solutions, you must apply a SAS/SHARE server to it. This enables multiple users to access the warehouse environment concurrently via the Pooled Metadata Repository (PMR) in SAS Scientific Discovery Solutions. The SAS/SHARE server associated with SAS Scientific Discovery Solutions must be running when you are creating this warehouse environment in SAS/Warehouse Administrator.

To create a data warehouse:

  1. Start the SAS/Share server.
  2. Create the directory structure.
  3. Create a warehouse environment.
  4. Create objects within the data warehouse.
  5. Register the warehouse environment to SAS Scientific Discovery Solutions.
