Zen and the Art of Data Quality

The linked article below contrasts Pirsig's 1974 motorcycle masterpiece with the insightful DQ guidance of the National Bank of Belgium (nbb_2017_27).

And it would be remiss not to explain how Data Controller for SAS® provides 3 layers of data quality defence (for those who Care):

1. Frontend Defence - select boxes, type checking, date pickers, validation rules, key protection. Prevents simple mistakes.

2. Backend Defence - run a SAS program following a submit to apply complex DQ rules, enabling immediate rejection with contextual reasoning. Prevents any mistake for which a rule can be written.

3. Human Defence - changes reviewed by one or more approvers before the target table is updated. The final line of defence against the stress of poor data quality.

To complete your data-zen experience - Data Controller can be downloaded, deployed AND configured in just a few minutes.

It runs on Viya, SAS 9 EBI, and vanilla Base SAS.
