Hello all... We are trying to use the analytical power of R in a Web based environment, and are seeking the optimal ways of accomplishing the same. We need R to accept requests from clients, perform analysis on the data as required by the users and return the results ( formatted text, graphs, etc) to the web browser. We have a Windows server with an IIS, Cold fusion app server that we want to talk to R. Can someone suggest an optimal way of accomplishing this? (I am a novice at this, so I hope you ask me for specific details that are necessary) Some of the things that we had unsuccessfully tried included playing around with: 1) CGIwithR package: This package appeared to be geared for Unix / Apache systems, so we couldn't get too far in the Windows Environment. 2) Biocep.net : We tried to use the tools from biocep.net to generate SOAP service definitions for R functions. We followed the instructions on biocep.net but we couldn't run the java program to access the R-soap from java.
It would be great if someone in the group has had success in implementing R-Soap through biocep packages, that can guide us. Even otherwise, what is the best way to access R from the web? Will running R under Apache make things easier? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
