WPS is available to run on [[z/OS|Mainframe z/OS]], [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[Mac OS X]], [[Linux]], [[Solaris (operating system)|Solaris]], [[IBM AIX|AIX]] and [[Linux on zSeries|Linux on Mainframe System z]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.worldprogramming.com/products/wps/platforms |title=www.worldprogramming.com/products/wps/platforms |accessdate=3 February 2012 |author=World Programming Ltd |date=2 February 2012}}</ref>
 
On all supported platforms, programs written in the language of SAS can be executed from a WPS command line interface, often referred to as running in batch mode.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.worldprogramming.com/products/wps/modules/cli|title=www.worldprogramming.com/products/wps/modules/cli |accessdate=3 February 2012 |author=World Programming Ltd |date=2 February 2012}}</ref>
 
WPS on all other supported platforms (with the exception of the Mainframe z/OS platform) can also be used from a [[graphical user interface]] known as the '''WPS Workbench''' for managing, editing and running programs written in the [[SAS language|language of SAS]]. The WPS Workbench user interface is based on [[Eclipse (software)]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.worldprogramming.com/products/wps/modules/workbench|title=www.worldprogramming.com/products/wps/modules/workbench |accessdate=3 February 2012 |author=World Programming Ltd |date=2 February 2012}}</ref>
