When you install machine learning with SQL Server, a package library is created at the instance level for each language that you install. This article describes these instance libraries, provides their locations, and explains how you can determine which packages and which version of R or Python are installed in each instance library.

When you install machine learning with SQL Server, a single package library is created at the instance level for each language that you install. SQL Server cannot access packages installed to other libraries.

If you connect to the server from a remote client, any R or Python code that you want to run in the server compute context can use only packages installed in the instance library.

The default instance library is installed to a secured folder that is registered with SQL Server and can be modified only by a computer administrator. The security on this library means that only approved packages can be installed and run on the server.

To protect server assets, the default instance library is installed to a secured folder that is registered with SQL Server and can be modified only by a computer administrator. If you are not the owner of the computer, you might need to get permission from an administrator to install packages to this library.

Even if you own the computer, you should consider the usefulness of any particular R or Python package in a server environment before adding the package to the instance library. Consider factors such as the size of package files and the need for multiple versions, as well as whether the package requires network or internet access.
