Posit Team is a bundle of our popular professional software for developing data science projects, publishing data products, and managing packages.
Posit Team includes Workbench, Connect, and Package Manager.
The diagrams on this page illustrate architectures for all three products. See individual product architecture diagrams here:
Posit Team: Each product on a separate server
In this configuration, each product is installed on a separate Linux server.
Posit Team: Load-balanced and high availability cluster
In this configuration, each product is installed on two or more separate Linux servers and requires:
- User’s home directories to be stored on an external shared file server (Workbench)
- Application data to be stored on an external shared file server (Connect and Package Manager)
- Application metadata to be stored on an external PostgreSQL database server (All)

Posit Team: Running inside a Kubernetes cluster
In this configuration, each product is installed within the kubernetes cluster and requires:
- User’s home directories to be stored on an external shared file server (Workbench)
- Application data to be stored on an external shared file server (Connect and Package Manager)
- Application metadata to be stored on an external PostgreSQL database server (All)
Posit provides Helm Charts to help maintain this entire installation.
