Open-Source Statistical Environment R with Oracle Database 11g
** Oracle R Enterprise ** Integrates the Open-Source Statistical Environment R with Oracle Database 11g.Oracle R Enterprise allows analysts and statisticians to run existing R applications and use the R client directly against data stored in Oracle Database 11g—vastly increasing scalability, performance and security. The combination of Oracle Database 11g and R delivers an enterprise-ready, deeply integrated environment for advanced analytics. Users can also use analytical sandboxes, where they can analyze data and develop R scripts for deployment while results stay managed inside Oracle Database. My first contact with R was by the blog post of Frits Hoogland " Using R and Oracle tracefiles "
