With the digital explosion of Big Data, which was closely followed by the importance of Big Data Analytics; careers as a Data Scientist gathered most importance. Now it is common knowledge, that data analytics is studying big data sets, which are not stored in conventional mediums and then drawing insights to take decisions which would benefit the companies.
Now as a Data Scientist, a professional requires a certain skill set and a tool set. Of the skills required here are programming, coding, in depth knowledge of statistics and so on. When it comes to tools, there are certain programming softwares, which come in handy for a Data Scientist in analyzing terabytes of Data, daily.

SAS or Statistical Analysis System is programming software, which is one of the most used tools in the industry of data analytics. It is software mainly used for storing, retrieving, sorting, analyzing and creating reports for the data. This is essentially a graphical user interface, which means that one does not need to have a coding background to use it. In fact, there are so many organizations and firms, which use this software for everything but data analytics.
Although it is a necessity to belong to the technology background for a career in Data Analytics, but sometimes just a working knowledge of IT and a strong base of statistics also works. The SAS programming software is one of the oldest and accounts for around 60-70% of the market share. This clearly shows that the majority of firms prefer it and thus, it becomes important for someone studying data analytics, to study SAS as well.
SAS Programming is essentially a propriety product, which means that it is a licensed software. Hence, it this means that the software is not open source and one needs to buy the same for usage. This is why; SAS becomes very thoroughly tested software, as it provides high customer support, if any glitch or issue arises. This accountability is the reason, why a lot of Data Analytics Professionals prefer SAS over other programming languages today.
As the importance of Data Analytics as a field increases, the number of people opting to learn SAS has also increased. There are a lot of institutes that offer training in Data Analytic courses all over India.
