Anaconda
Install prerequistes.
sudo yum install -y bzip2
Change directory to /tmp
.
cd /tmp
Fetch the install script.
curl -O https://repo.anaconda.com/archive/Anaconda3-5.3.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
Make the script executable.
sudo chmod +x ./Anaconda3-5.3.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
Execute the script.
sudo ./Anaconda3-5.3.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
Make the installation location system-wide. When prompted, select /opt/anaconda3
.
Anaconda3 will now be installed into this location:
/root/anaconda3
- Press ENTER to confirm the location
- Press CTRL-C to abort the installation
- Or specify a different location below
[/root/anaconda3] >>> /opt/anaconda3
Follow the prompts and specify the installation location:
Do you wish the installer to initialize Anaconda3
in your /root/.bashrc ? [yes|no],
[no] >>> no
Instead, create a system-wide Anaconda profile in the /etc/profile.d
directory.
sudo vi /etc/profile.d/conda.sh
Ensure you have the correct path.

Jupyter Notebook
Azure offers a free upyter notebook service described here. Here we build a custom notebook with kernels for R, Python, and SAS.
Open port 8888.
az vm open-port --priority 1002 --resource-group Py4SAS --name Py4SAS-vm --port 8888
Launch the notebook.
jupyter notebook --no-browser --port 8888 --ip=0.0.0.0 --notebook-dir=$HOME/notebook
Returns:
[I 19:01:25.207 NotebookApp] JupyterLab extension loaded from /opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/jupyterlab
[I 19:01:25.207 NotebookApp] JupyterLab application directory is /opt/anaconda3/share/jupyter/lab
[I 19:01:25.220 NotebookApp] Serving notebooks from local directory: /home/trb/notebook
[I 19:01:25.220 NotebookApp] The Jupyter Notebook is running at:

R Notebook kernel
Use the conda package manager.
conda install -c r r-irkernel
Make the irkernel
package available for R.
IRkernel::installspec(name = 'ir33', displayname = 'R 3.6 on AZ')
Launch the notebook.
jupyter notebook --no-browser --port 8888 --ip=0.0.0.0 --notebook-dir=$HOME/notebook
R Studio Server
R Studio Server is a popular U/I for R.
wget https://download2.rstudio.org/server/centos6/x86_64/rstudio-server-rhel-1.2.1335-x86_64.rpm
Install R Studio Server.
sudo yum install rstudio-server-rhel-1.2.1335-x86_64.rpm
Open port 8787.
az vm open-port --priority 1008 --resource-group Py4SAS --name Py4SAS-vm --port 8787
Launch the server.
http://<server-ip>:8787
SAS Notebook kernel
The SAS kernel has dependencies on SASPy. See the section on this site for installing and configuring SASPy on Azure.
pip install --upgrade pip
Install the sas-kernel.
pip install sas_kernel
Verify the kernels availability.
jupyter kernelspec list
Returns.
Available kernels:
sas /home/trb/.local/share/jupyter/kernels/sas
