Going “Pro” with RStudio Server Open Source
RStudio is the go-to tool for programmers working in R. Frequently organizations will want to centralize their R work or provide web-based access to a compute environment. Although RStudio Server has an “open source edition”, most of the useful administrative functionality is locked behind the rather-expensive RStudio Server Pro version ($10k USD/year). This price isn’t sustainable for many organizations, or might not otherwise be worth it if there are only a few potential users.
