Upgrading to SAS 9.3

Three Day Weeks

Today I start doing three day weeks. I am not complaining though. I only have to go to th.office three days per week. The other two days I work from home. The reason for this is that we now have ten people in the team and we only have six desks.

Warehousing with Lloyds

I am now working at Lloyds Banking Group, helping to build a Risk Warehouse for the combined group. This project is intended to replace a number of different (fragmented) solutions within the enlarged LBG group. The contract started at the beginning of August and will run through until the end of March 2011.

My involvement will be to design and build a couple of modules that will help the group to manage the risk in their loan book.

The project is using SAS 9.2 and utilises DI Studio, Enterprise Guide and other tools. It will run on a GRID environment, a number of servers will be available to route the processing request and split the processing intelligently among the servers available.
