description Posit Workbench (Self-Hosted) Overview
Posit Workbench gives organizations a centrally managed place for data scientists to work through a browser while computation runs on infrastructure controlled by the organization. A self-hosted deployment can keep administration and access policies within an existing environment. It includes the RStudio experience and also supports other development interfaces for R and Python work. Each user works in managed sessions rather than everyone sharing one R process.
Administrators can configure authentication and resource policies, which makes it relevant to larger teams and institutions handling controlled data. The session documentation explains how RStudio sessions are launched and managed. Its value comes from combining familiar development tools with organizational oversight; consistency and capacity still depend on how the deployment is configured.
