TIBCO
Spotfire Statistics Services |
Spotfire Statistics Services is a separate server that runs statistics analyses using SAS, MATLAB, open-source R, or TIBCO Enterprise Runtime for R (TERR). This server runs in a deployment of one or more Spotfire Server instances, serving the different clients. Note: Web-based clients on the cloud, such as Spotfire Business Author and Spotfire Consumer, do not have access to Spotfire Statistics Services. |
Default
URL |
Use this option to connect to the default Spotfire Statistics Services server configured by the administrator. Note: Selecting this option has no effect for users of web-based clients on the cloud. |
Custom
URL |
Use this option to run data functions using an alternative instance of Spotfire Statistics Services. For example, while you are developing new data functions you can use Spotfire Statistics Services Local Adapter to test your scripts. Note: Selecting this option has no effect for users of web-based clients on the cloud. |
Use
locally installed TIBCO Enterprise Runtime for R engine |
Select this option to use the TERR engine installed with Spotfire. If you are using TIBCO Spotfire Cloud Analyst, you must select this for predictive analysis features, data functions, and expression functions. Note: If you download and use Spotfire Cloud Analyst, you can use TERR to create a Data Function or to call the TERR engine from the Spotfire Expression language. However, when you publish an analysis to the Spotfire Cloud, remember that the TERR engine is not available to web-based users. Trying to filter or use other controls that call the TERR engine in the web-based client results in an error reporting that TIBCO Spotfire Statistics Services is not available. If you want to use TERR in Spotfire applications that you publish to web-based users, it is recommended to use Spotfire Cloud Enterprise instead. |
Enable
Data Function debugging |
Select to display all of the printed output from the TERR engine, including additional debug information and any warnings or errors. The debugging information is always displayed as a warning or error icon in the lower left corner of the visualization. The information shown is in addition to any other warnings or errors that occur in Spotfire. |
