Arachne Execution Engine uses Docker to encapsulate the R runtime environment. While this works great for some organizations, many organizations have restrictions on the use of docker.
Generalizing Arachne EE so that it can be built using a variety of virtualization technologies would expand the number of organizations that could use it with Atlas or Arachne.
This issue is to propose creating a cloud formation template for Arachne EE on AWS. Users would be able to easily set up and Arachne EE instance on AWS EC2 without the use of Docker at all.
