The preceding example contains the simplest way of building a linear regression model using the rxFastLinear() function. If your dataset is large enough to fit into a single computer's memory, then you can run this model in a remote cluster computing node. To run this model in a remote cluster computing node, you need to create a computing context using RxComputeContext(). Also, you can pass the computing context through the computeContext argument.

To get a predicted outcome, you could use the rxPredict() function along with the new dataset.
