PASS Business Analytics DayYou have two great choices: In-Database Analytics with R and SQL Server 2016 and Mastering Power BI Solutions .
In-Database Analytics with R and SQL Server 2016
With Microsoft SQL Server 2016, data scientists can run in-database analytics using R. This is a “best of both worlds” scenario: delegate database management to SQL Server whilst you create analytics and visualisations in R and Power BI. In this session, we will cover the overall architecture of SQL R Services and go over some best practices. We will look at best practices in analytics and visualisations with a focus on R, and then we delve more in-depth into some practical common use-cases.
Speakers:
David Smith , R Community Lead at Revolution Analytics, a Microsoft Company
Seth Mottaghinejad , Data Scientist, Microsoft
