What is Revolution Analytics?

Revolution Analytics is a company that specialized in providing software, services, and support for the R programming language, which is widely used for statistical computing and data analysis. Founded in 2007, Revolution Analytics developed 'Revolution R', an enhanced distribution of R designed for enterprise use, including features for big data and advanced analytics. In 2015, Microsoft acquired Revolution Analytics, and its technology has since been integrated into Microsoft’s data platforms, such as Microsoft R Server (now Microsoft Machine Learning Server). Revolution Analytics played a significant role in popularizing R for business and large-scale analytics.
