ANALYZE YOUR DATA

Deploy an R & Python development tool for your enterprise

Posit Workbench Licenses (Rstudio Server Pro)

If your data scientists use R or Python with RStudio Desktop individually on their machines and you want to benefit from a more powerful computing server that promotes collaboration among them while implementing good practices, or if they use the Open Source edition of RStudio Server but you want to enhance the security of the solution and access “pro” features, then Posit Workbench is the preferred IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for data scientists working with R and/or Python.. In addition to the “classic” Rstudio IDE, workbench also offers VScode and jupyterlab.

Posit Workbench provides collaboration features, centralized management, server monitoring, security, and commercial support that professional data science teams need to operate at scale.

In case of high resource demand, when multiple data scientists use the tool simultaneously, the licensed version of Posit Workbench provides load balancing to distribute the work across multiple servers, allowing everyone to work in optimal conditions.

Posit Workbench users can download and use Posit’s professional drivers for free without additional cost. These connectors for the most common databases (Oracle, Hive, Teradata, etc.) will allow your data scientists to explore databases from Posit Workbench and use databases with R in a production environment.
