Processing Multilingual Data With the SAS 9.2 Unicode Server
Overview In a global economy, data often comes from various countries using different languages and scripts. This data can be stored in a relational database management system (for example: Oracle, DB2, Informix, and MS-SQL), in Excel spreadsheets, or in plain text files. Also, the data can come from different platforms or operating systems, such as Windows, AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, or other UNIX derivatives. Instead of keeping the data in separate databases, it is more efficient to maintain a central repository that can support a global set of languages. With the SAS Unicode server, which is a SAS session encoding of UTF-8, it is possible to store, process, and deliver multilingual data.
