Hi,
I want to use R to do user-submitted jobs in a (java-based) webapp.
Specifically, I want
* users to upload R scripts
* run the R job on user data
* save the results to database
I'm concerned about sandbox issues.
* Is it possible to disable file read/write capability?
* Can I prevent the user from loading packages (e.g. the database package).
* Can I have users work on separate data sets while preventing access to
other user's data?
I'm trying to see if there's a secure way to let users upload their R
scripts and run on my server.
Have a look at Rserve (http://www.rforge.net/Rserve), I've never used it
but it might be useful to you.
