In this course, you learn to use the R API to take control of SAS Cloud Analytic Services (CAS) actions from Jupyter Notebook. You learn to upload data into the in-memory distributed environment, analyze data, and create predictive models in CAS using familiar R functionality via the SWAT (SAS Wrapper for Analytics Transfer) package. You then learn to download results to the client and use native R syntax to compare models.

R users who want to take advantage of SAS Viya distributed analytics for fast and efficient modeling

• Use the R API in SAS Viya.

• Submit CAS actions from R.

• Manage, alter, and prepare data on the CAS server.

• Implement and compare machine learning models on the CAS server.

• Move data between the client and server.

• Use R syntax to wrap up CAS actions with functions and loops.

• Promote data to persist in memory.
