The World Programming System (WPS) is a code interpreter that can execute programs written in the language of SAS.
SAS programs can typically be executed with WPS with little or no modification because the language supported by WPS covers much of that found in Base SAS® plus many data access methods found in SAS/ACCESS®. There is also support for some basic language elements that users may be familiar with from other SAS products.

WPS is available for use on multiple platforms including mainframe z/OS, Microsoft Windows and soon for UNIX.
For mainframe z/OS, WPS offers for the first time, an alternative to SAS products without the need for costly re-writing of existing SAS programs.
For the Windows environment, including server, workstation and laptop, WPS provides program editing, management and execution facilities via an advanced graphical user interface.
Prerelease support for running WPS on different UNIX platforms is available.
You can substitute the SAS System for WPS and run your third party applications such as MXG to produce the same results. Software costs may be significantly reduced by replacing the SAS System with WPS.
As a low cost yet high value product, WPS is challenging the traditional license models that customers have previously had to accept.
More details about WPS prices for all supported platforms can be found in the purchase section.
