SAS Institute Inc is following in the footsteps of rival business intelligence vendors Brio Technology Inc and Cognos Inc and has announced a web-based portal that gives users centralized access to its business intelligence, data warehousing and knowledge management applications. SAS says its portal, SAS Collaborative Server version 2.5, provides single sign on access to its data warehouse products and to a new version of its BI suite, called Collaborative Business Intelligence (CBI) which has been upgraded to include knowledge management functionality. In addition, SAS says that CBI unites access to structured data, such as reports and analyses with unstructured data, such as email and word processing documents.
