Henrik BengtssonR is a truly beautiful language! ✨
A #Slurm user just confirmed that "yay it works. Pretty sick!"
Thanks to excellent feedback from several users, it'll soon be even easier to distribute #rstats code via #HPC job schedulers using future.batchtools
A Future API for Parallel and Distributed Processing using batchtools
Implementation of the Future API <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-048> on top of the batchtools package. This allows you to process futures, as defined by the future package, in parallel out of the box, not only on your local machine or ad-hoc cluster of machines, but also via high-performance compute (HPC) job schedulers such as LSF, OpenLava, Slurm, SGE, and TORQUE / PBS, e.g. y <- future.apply::future_lapply(files, FUN = process).
Thank you #user2025 and everyone who participated and contributed to this amazing conference! It was great to see you all <3
My first talk ever on #future was at useR! 2016, which I ended with a wish for a
plan(future.p2p::cluster)
backend. It took nine years to get there. My useR! 2025 slides on:
Futureverse P2P: Peer-to-Peer Parallelization in R (Share compute among friends across the world)
are available via https://www.futureverse.org/talks.html

The future package celebrates ten years on CRAN as of June 19, 2025. I just posted the second in a series of blog posts highlighting recent improvements to the #futureverse ecosystem:
* Setting Future Plans in R Functions - and Why You Probably Shouldn't
available at https://www.jottr.org/2025/06/25/with-plan/
You can now do:
my_fcn <- function(...) {
with(plan(multisession), local = TRUE)
...
}
but, as explained in the post, I recommend not doing any that, unless really needed
Setting Future Plans in R Functions — and Why You Probably Shouldn't
The future package celebrates ten years on CRAN as of June 19, 2025. This is the second in a series of blog posts highlighting recent improvements to the futureverse ecosystem. TL;DR You can now use my_fcn <- function(...) { with(plan(multisession), local = TRUE) ... } to temporarily set a future backend for use in your function. This guarantees that any changes are undone when the function exits, even if there is an error or an interrupt.

Future got better at finding global variables
The future package celebrates ten years on CRAN as of June 19, 2025. This is the first of a series of blog posts highlighting recent improvements to the futureverse ecosystem. The globals package is part of the futureverse and has had two recent releases on 2025-04-15 and 2025-05-08. These updates address a few corner cases that would otherwise lead to unexpected errors. They also resulted in several long, outstanding issues reported on the future, future.
The future package turns ten today 🥳 To celebrate, I’ll start a blog series covering recent improvements that set us up for new, exciting ways for writing concurrent #RStats - neater than what our trusty workhorses future.apply & furrr offer
Liberating the future!
I'm happy to share that major progress has been made on the #Futureverse roadmap. Already the next release comes with new, exciting, frequently asked features, and more are ready to ship in following release.
Release candidate #1 of the 'future' package is now available on R-universe;
install.packages("future", repos = c("https://futureverse.r-universe.dev", "https://cloud.r-project.org'))
Please give it a try🙏 As usual, these updates should be 100% backward.
