Running R as a server or in a cluster
Hi all, Short of answers, but I do wonder if anyone has used Sun Microsystems www.network.com for grid work with R. At 1USD a CPU hr, with R already built - and a working example script on the service - it seems like a path worth exploring. Has anyone given it a try. I set up an account, but have yet to get the opportunity to try it out. Here is the link: http://www.network.com/apps/r_project.html Jeff Ryan

We have set up a Condor cluster, see http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/ and we submit R jobs to the cluster. It works well because Condor has very advanced scheduling capabilities, job monitoring, etc.
Adrian,
Could you provide more details? Are you running Rserve on the cluster,
running "R CMD BATCH", or using Parallel-R?
I'd like to suggest that we use this thread to continue to develop the
collective knowledge of the r-sig-finance community on distributed or
high-throughput R calculations.
