When R is installed on SQL Server 2016 there are new
settings and configurations the DBA needs to know to ensure that SQL
Server is not adversely impacted when R is run on the server. This session will show what settings need to
be changed to monitor R and provide tools to assist in the process. The components installed and their
interaction with SQL Server will be explored to provide a better understanding
of what processes are running when and what their impact is on performance.
Attendees will learn what R code needs to include to run not only in memory but
also to use the ScaleR processes of R Server to swap to disk when all memory is
in use. The maintenance requirements for
implementing R code are reviewed so that DBAs will know what steps are involved
to support R running on SQL Server. By
default SQL Server allows R users to utilize server resources at will without
having any R code installed on the server.
Learn about this process and how to restrict it. If you are planning on running R on your SQL
Server 2016 instance you need this session to configure the server to ensure
optimal performance for SQL Server and R.
