Configuration of Posit Professional Products

RStudio is now Posit!

Our professional products have been renamed to Posit Connect, Posit Workbench, Posit Package Manager, Posit Cloud, and Posit Academy so it’s easier for folks to understand that we support more than just R. Please review our Blog post/FAQ to answer commonly asked questions about the rebrand.

Posit professional products¹ are highly configurable. The table below represents the most common installation, configurations, and integration steps that are used in practice for each product.

All of the configuration steps and integration steps are optional depending on your needs. Your unique environment will likely require additional tuning.
