In SAS Model Manager, a data scientist wants to publish a model to a SAS Micro Analytic Service (MAS) destination for real-time scoring. Which statement best describes MAS?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Here's the deal — you want the lightweight, low-latency web service that runs SAS DS2 score code through a REST API for real-time, record-level scoring. MAS is built for operational deployment where you need sub-millisecond latency.
Full Explanation
The right description is that SAS Micro Analytic Service (MAS) is a high-performance, low-latency REST API service that executes SAS DS2 score code in memory for real-time, single-record or micro-batch scoring. It is designed for operational deployment where sub-millisecond latency is required. The batch scoring engine that processes files overnight is wrong because MAS is a real-time service, not a batch processor. The data preparation tool that cleans input data before model scoring is wrong because MAS executes score code, not data preparation. The SAS Model Manager user interface for viewing model performance dashboards is wrong because MAS is a scoring execution environment, not a dashboard UI.
