R In SQL Server [closed]

Question

I've recently downloaded the CTP for SQL Server 2016 in order to get a grasp with the integration of the R language with SQL Server.

I haven't been able to find any resources/documentation on the topic as of yet.

Has anyone else had any joy with it?

Thanks

Answer 1

I've been researching this as well and here are my findings.

As of 2015-08-19

• During Microsoft Ignite conference (2015), Lindsey Allen demo'd R integration in the new SQL Server 2016. Link

• The feature is not yet ready in CTP 2. This is discussed here.

• Books online for SQL Server 2016 Books Online

Please update me with any new information you come across!! Thanks.

Answer 2

R is available on SQL Server 2016 CTP 3.
