A couple of months into my career at Butterfly Data, I was assigned with understanding how to deploy SAS Viya onto Microsoft Azure…

In my second interview with Butterfly Data, I was asked about SAS. I thought it was one of those clever questions interviewers ask to throw off a candidate…

The ability to dynamically create code allows you to make incredibly flexible systems for processing data. For example, on a project Butterfly Data has worked on, we built a data quality system which checked the quality of 190+ data types, each of which had different formats.

The credit union consolidation rate has held steady at about 3.5% a year for the past 40 years. The most common merger scenario has larger entities acquiring small and midsize credit unions. Analysts are speculating that pressures on the biggest credit unions will force many to consider merger strategies in the months to come.

In the first eight months of 2021, publicly announced mergers and acquisitions (M&A) were valued at more than $3.6 trillion globally and $1.8 trillion in the US according to Dealogic. Both numbers are the highest since 1995, when the data provider began its tracking.

While working for a large government client we were keen to get them to maximise the benefits of their new SAS Viya installation.

Here at Butterfly, we love to celebrate our team and particularly today we want to recognise the achievements and unique entrance to our team of James Lancashire

This is one of the first things I did when moving from academia, knowing and loving all things R, to data analysis at Butterfly Data where the SAS language would be my main tool…
