The Power of Snowflake and Posit Workbench: Macroeconomic Data Exploration in the Cloud

💬 Speaker(s): Jonathan Regenstein

📝 Abstract:

In this talk, we will utilize the Posit Workbench Native App to demonstrate how macroeconomic research can be run in the Snowflake cloud, powered by R & RStudio.

Starting with data sourced from the Snowflake marketplace, we will import, transform, visualize, and, finally, model data using the Orbital framework to push tidymodels down to the cloud. This is full-stack, R-driven macroeconomic research in the cloud. posit::conf(2025) Subscribe to posit::conf updates: posit.co/about/subscription-management
