RSTUDIO LOCAL JOBS AND REMOTE LAUNCHER: OFFLOAD YOUR WORK AND UNBLOCK YOUR CONSOLE
A webinar presentation by James Blair, Solutions Engineer at RStudio
Live on August 7th, at 1:00PM - 2:00PM EDT
Abstract
The recent release of RStudio 1.2 introduced the ability to send long-running R scripts to local and remote background jobs. This functionality can dramatically improve the productivity of data scientists and analysts using R since they can continue working in an unblocked R session in RStudio while jobs are running in the background. In this webinar, we will demonstrate common use cases for local and remote background jobs.
