SUGGESTION (Disruptive Innovation): Run R Functions directly from MariaDB SQL statements

There is a really interesting plugin for Excel called BERT: "Basic Excel Toolkit", which allows to call R Functions as if they were regular Excel Functions:

BERT Toolkit

If you have any basic R programming Knowledge, it is interesting to install it and see how it works.

Now I was wondering, ¿Would not it be cool to be able to do the same from a MariaDB's SELECT statement? Nor PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Oracle Database can call a function from an SQL script (Or a trigger or scheduled event) to a R Function.

So, we would be able to execute a query like this:

SELECT

   R_EigenValues_Function(My_Column)

FROM

   MyTable;

Being R_EigenValues_Function() an R user defined function.

Thank you.
