SSH as an out of the box option?
Posted: Sun Aug 04, 2013 1:03 am
First of all, I'm really glad to see that there is already some R work going on with this. I ordered a couple boards yesterday with the hope that it would be possible to get them working with R. Then I came across this set of posts and was really glad to see that a lot of work has already been done.
Second, wouldn't it be possible to get things working "out of the box" using SSH? Maybe not the highest performance solution, but something that would work with one of the doXXXX pacakges (i.e., doParallel) would make this really easy for general purpose use.
I'm thinking about this based on how I build a cluster of laptops at my house when I need a few extra cores, maybe I'm missing something about the nature of the Parallella structure and/or cores.
