HP to Tout SAS' Enterprise Intelligence Platform

Building on a 25-year relationship, SAS is expanding its relationship with HP to further develop, market and sell the SAS Enterprise Intelligence Platform on HP Integrity servers. The agreement includes pre-sales support, project sizing, architecture assessments and additional resources dedicated to co-marketing and sales engagement activities.

The agreement provides a deeper integration between SAS’ business intelligence software and HP Integrity servers running HP-UX 11i. The two companies will develop and market new vertical offerings to help customers integrate business processes across the enterprise and gain greater insight into business performance.

Customers in a variety of industries, including financial services, pharmaceutical/life sciences and the public sector, have benefited from the companies’ relationship because SAS’ software has been optimised for greater performance on HP Integrity servers. This optimisation is expected to continue for new releases and future updates to ensure a smoother implementation process and enable users to leverage their existing hardware and software investments more effectively. SAS has provided ongoing support for HP Integrity servers for more than two years.

Commenting on the customer-focused strategy of the two companies, Don Jenkins, Vice President of Marketing, Business Critical Servers, HP, added "For more than 25 years, HP and SAS have worked together to provide server and application tuning and optimisation for customers’ most demanding business intelligence workloads."
