Hi, As we are in thinking of installing and using R as a data analysis software on our machines, we have few questions before going ahead with the installation. Please find below the questions: 1) Does R allow data to be sent out or processed out of the organization network (e.g. ability to store data in a drop box, or cloud computing). If yes, can this functionality be removed (by IT department of the organization using R) so that every data storage and processing is done on local machine?
R is a programming language, hence you certainly write code to store data where you like.
2) Does the licensing terms of R allow usage of software in commercial environment (especially delivering on client engagements)? Other way round, would we be able to use this software for the purposes I need while complying with licensing terms?
R is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, either Version 2, June 1991 or Version 3, June 2007.
3) Will R be compatible with our laptop image ? What are the various information security provisions available within free version of R. We have Windows Vista enterprise and Windows 7 enterprise as the primary OS installed in our machines.
We do not know your image nor do we provide support. Best, Uwe Ligges
