Traefik is a modern HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. In this post, it'll be demonstrated how path-based routing can be set up by Traefik with Docker. Also a centralized authentication will be illustrated with the Forward Authentication feature of Traefik.

In this post, I'll illustrate how a web service is created using FastAPI framework where tasks are sent to multiple workers. The workers are built with Celery and Rserve. Redis is used as a message broker/result backend for Celery and a key-value store for Rserve. Demos can be run in both Docker Compose and Kubernetes.

In this post, I'll demonstrate how to create a Linux development environment on Windows using WSL. Also an example app (Rserve web service with a sidecar container) on Minikube will be demonstrated.

In part I, it is discussed how to serve an R function with plumber, Rserve and rApache. In this post, the APIs are deployed in a Docker container and, after showing example requests, their performance is compared.

API is an effective way of distributing analysis outputs to external clients. When it comes to API development with R, however, there are not many choices. In this post, serving an R function with plumber, Rserve and rApache is discussed.
