The Data Science Platform offers researchers on campus access to Connect, a publishing platform that brings your analysis and research artifacts to your stakeholders and makes analysis visible, sharable, and easy to interact with.
Why should you give the Data Science Platform a try?
The Data Science Platform runs in the cloud and offers a number of advantages. With an account from us …
Enhances Sharing, Collaboration, and Access Control – The Data Science Platform addresses an often overlooked part of the research life cycle: publishing and sharing. It enables seamless access to your code, analysis, and results directly from your IDE or via the command line.
- Lowers Technical Barriers for Researchers – The platform fosters collaboration by making research artifacts easily shareable and interactive through tools like Shiny, Plotly, or Dash.
- Supports Flexible, Multilingual Workflows – The Data Science Platform supports R, Python, and APIs, allowing your lab to maintain a multilingual workflow.
- Enables Reproducible and Automated Research – Publish R Markdown, Quarto documents, Shiny apps, Python scripts, and more, while preserving data provenance and ensuring reproducibility.
- Provides Secure, Scalable, and Centralized Infrastructure – The Data Science Platform offers campus-level deployment that reduces duplication, enhances scalability, and promotes best practices.
