The Challenge
Janssen scientists are most efficient when they have the ability to easily share code and applications, and collaborate with colleagues. They are looking to conduct their analyses in R, develop Shiny applications to share with other scientists and business colleagues across J&J, and submit R batch jobs to an HPC cluster. Traditional RStudio Server and Shiny environments employ single-node setups, with a shared drive between them to store R packages and host Shiny apps. However, the team determined that this setup would not scale well with increasing demands for compute or memory.
