SAS Unveils Quantum Lab on Viya Platform, Combining Emulated Workloads with a “Physics-First” Auditing Approach

Enterprise analytics architecture pioneer SAS has introduced SAS Quantum Lab, a development and simulation environment embedded natively inside its cloud-native SAS Viya data platform. Announced at the SAS Innovate conference in Dallas, Texas, the platform treats quantum computing as a downstream step in a hybrid workflow, prioritizing heavy initial algorithmic verification and auto-tuning on classical infrastructure before committing code to physical quantum processors. The software rollout coincides with the publication of the company’s 2026 global industry survey evaluating over 500 technology executives, which revealed that uncertainty around practical, real-world business use cases has surpassed capital expense as the primary adoption barrier in the post-classical space.
