“A key benefit of R is that it provides near-instant availability of new and
experimental methods created by its user base — without waiting for the
development/release cycle of commercial software. SAS recognizes the value of R
to our customer base…”
Product Marketing Manager SAS Institute, Inc.
“I’ve been astonished by the rate at which R has been adopted. Four years ago,
everyone in my economics department [at the University of Chicago] was using
Stata; now, as far as I can tell, R is the standard tool, and students learn it first.”
Deputy Editor for New Products at Forbes

• Portions of the data source are made available to each compute node
• RevoScaleR on the master node assigns a task to each compute node
• Each compute node independently processes its data, and returns its intermediate results back to the master node
• master node aggregates all of the intermediate results from each compute node and produces the final result
