Posit Connect
Turn research and data science into impact — Fast, secure, and shareable
Companies of every size love Posit Connect
USE CASES
Move from idea to prototype to production quickly
Enable faster, real-time decision-making
Experiencing this today? Decisions are dragged out because stakeholders need data presented differently. They need to come back to you asking for minor tweaks which they can’t make themselves.
With Posit Connect: Stakeholders interact with data through dashboards and custom applications, which allow them to adjust parameters themselves. They see their results in real-time and get answers on the fly.
Spend less time on ad-hoc reporting
Experiencing this today? You repeat the same analysis every month, only with updated data and new dates. Building and distributing this new analysis is operationally intensive and takes a lot of time.
With Posit Connect: You can deploy a company-branded report, then schedule it to update and distribute daily at 7 AM with fresh data, so stakeholders have the latest insights to review with their morning coffee.
Drive faster iteration cycles
Experiencing this today? Slow feedback for iteration of business critical models. Models are developed by data scientists but have dependencies on other teams for deployment.
With Posit Connect: Data scientists own the entire model development lifecycle. Decision makers receive a link to dynamic apps and APIs with the latest data to provide quick feedback. Microsoft decreased end-to-end model development from 3 days to 1 hour with Connect.
Product Overview
Posit Connect Basics
Deploy without disruption
Publish updates as frequently as you wish without IT handoffs or hand-holding.
Posit Connect makes code deployment easy and approachable:
- • Push-button from your IDE or notebook
- • Pull from a Git repository
- • Build a custom CI/CD pipeline
- • Roll back to a previous version
Connect supports the most popular Python & R frameworks. Publish Shiny, Dash, Streamlit, Quarto, R Markdown, Jupyter Notebooks, Flask, FastAPI, Plumber, Bokeh, and more.
Manage access & execution
Access
With Posit Connect you can decide who should be able to view and collaborate on the things you publish.
- • Keep content private (only visible to you)
- • Share content with individuals or groups and control whether they are viewers or collaborators
- • Make content visible to everyone with server access
Execution
Scale and tune applications and APIs by controlling processes, connections, and resources. Customize the Unix user account used for code execution. In a Kubernetes configuration, specify the service account and execution environment for each content item.
Automate & distribute
Automation
Set up your reports to run on a schedule and update data sources, dashboards, or Pins automatically. Define the time interval between executions and revisit historical output.
Distribution
Send email updates that include the latest plots, tables, and data. Utilize the R & Python ecosystem to leverage additional distribution channels.
Enterprise security
Enterprise Security & Support
Maintain control over your data and who has access. Work with your organization’s preferred identity management provider, including LDAP/Active Directory, OpenID Connect, Google OAuth, PAM, SAML, proxied authentication, or an internal username/password database.
Posit Connect is self-managed, supported software that can be installed on a server behind your firewall (Ubuntu, RedHat/CentOS, and SUSE Linux), in a VPC, or Kubernetes.
Once Posit Connect is configured with your preferred security policies, the product is designed to make R and Python developers as self-sufficient as possible while maintaining an environment that can be audited and centrally controlled.
