R interface to Kusto, also known as Azure Data Explorer, a fast and highly scalable data exploration service.
AzureKusto is available on CRAN.
options(repos="https://cloud.r-project.org")
install.packages("AzureKusto")You can install the development version from GitHub. The primary repo is https://github.com/Azure/AzureKusto; please submit issues and pull requests there. AzureKusto is also mirrored at the Cloudyr organisation, at https://github.com/cloudyr/AzureKusto.
devtools::install_github("Azure/AzureKusto")Connect to a Kusto cluster by instantiating a
kusto_database_endpoint object with the cluster URI and
database name.
library(AzureKusto)
Samples <- kusto_database_endpoint(server="https://help.kusto.windows.net", database="Samples")
# (New in 1.1.0) Some other ways to call this that also work:
# Samples <- kusto_database_endpoint(server="help", database="Samples")
# Samples <- kusto_database_endpoint(cluster="help", database="Samples")

run_query and get the results back as a data.frame.
res <- run_query(Samples, "StormEvents | summarize EventCount = count() by State | order by State asc")
head(res)

## 2 ALASKA 257

parameters as additional keyword arguments and they will be escaped and
interpolated into the query string.
res <- run_query(Samples, "MyFunction(lim)", lim=10L)Command statements work much the same way, except that they do not accept parameters.
res <- run_query(Samples, ".show tables")The package also implements a dplyr-style interface for
building a query upon a tbl_kusto object and then running
it on the remote Kusto database and returning the result as a regular
tibble object with collect().
library(dplyr)
StormEvents <- tbl_kusto(Samples, "StormEvents")
q <- StormEvents %>%
group_by(State) %>%
summarize(EventCount=n()) %>%
arrange(State)
show_query(q)

It should be noted that Kusto is quite different to the SQL databases that DBI targets, which affects the behaviour of certain DBI methods and renders other moot.

ku <- az$
