I'm all set and looking forward for a great #SASchat on #SysAdminDay ! This is Mathias from Belgium !

{A1} Aside Empathy and Compassion ? Today I would say Cloud integration skills are an absolute necessity for a #SysAdminDay #SASChat.

Hope the discussion will be lively and keep you awake !

{A2} keeping business critical systems in a good state: available, responsive and safe #SysAdminDay #SASChat

{A3} increasing digitalisation, more outsourcing, all types of hybrid clouds, (cyber)security just to name a few ... #SysAdminDay #SASChat.

{A3} SAS side is somewhat specific for #SysAdminDay as for many organisations this spans both #SAS9 and the transition to #SASViya #SASChat

Absolutely ! Spot on ! #SysAdminday #SASChat

A5 A #SysAdmin takes on a number of responsibilities and duties to help their company's IT infrastructure run smoothly. Keeping up to date in a variety of areas helps. They are worth a lot! #SASchat #sysadminday lifehacker.com.au/2014/08/being-…

{A5} engaging with peers on SAS Communities communities.sas.com/t5/Administrat… is a great way to stay up to date and be able to giec something back as well ! #SASViya #SASChat

A1} Budget constraints, disbelief, resistance to change, organisation readiness, inability to scale analytical assets, lack of ownership and data quality issues are some of the barriers to #AnalyticsAdoption I've observed, and I'm just getting started #SASChat

A2} The Cloud is the best alternative to build an initial analytics proof of concept, show the value of the business case and scale up to reach #AnalyticsAdoption #SASChat

A2} Cloud requires little to no upfront commitment, and gives access to unlimited and highly specialised infrastructure such as GPUs, exactly what you need to quickly prove an analytics business case #AnalyticsAdoption #SASChat

A3} showing quick returns, increasing the Analytical knwoledge and skill levels within the organisation, and preparing use cases for data #AnalyticsAdoption #SASChat

A4} That's' easy ! I would advise anyone to talk to this enthousiastic crowd on #SASChat today! So many inspiring ideas from these thought leaders !

A4} all great ideas from the crowd, but what if there is no analytics strategy, no CDO, and only a very conservative C-suite ? #SASChat #AnalyticsAdoption

A5} bottom up initiatives alone will have limited impact and never lead to wide #AnalyticsAdoption. Join an ally in your organisation who takes it top-down and work towards a common goal. #SASChat

This is Mathias calling in from sunny Belgium #SASChat #analytics looking forward for a good discussion about #valuefrom analytics

A1} automation and integration are 2 key capabilities for maximising productivity of an #analytics and #AI #platform #SASchat

A2} Even more then raw speed I would like to emphasize scalability and elasticity as importance capabilities of an #analytics and #ai platform #SASChat

A3} Lowering learning curve, reuse of assets, visual interfaces are best practices and capabilities of no/low-code that help increase productivity #SASChat #analytics
