Microsoft R - ScaleR Overview with a Quick Tutorial

Microsoft R enable enterprise-wide, scalable experimental data science and operational machine learning, by providing a collection of servers and tools that extend the capabilities of open-source R. In these slides, we give a quick introduction to Microsoft R Server architecture, and a comprehensive overview of ScaleR, the core libraries to Microsoft R, that enables parallel execution and use external data frames (xdfs). A tutorial-like presentation covering how to: 1) setup the environments, 2) read data, 3) process & transform, 4) analyse, summarize, visualize, 5) learn & predict, and finally 6) deploy and consume (using msrdeploy).
