Two years ago we released Version 12.0 of the Wolfram Language. Here are the updates in cloud and webpage construction since then, including the latest features in 13.0. The contents of this post are compiled from Stephen Wolfram's Release Announcements for 12.1, 12.2, 12.3 and 13.0.
WSTPServer: A New Deployment of Wolfram Engine (December 2020)
Our long-term goal is to make the Wolfram Language and the computational intelligence it provides as ubiquitous as possible. And part of doing this is to set up the Wolfram Engine which implements the language so that it can be deployed in as broad a range of computational infrastructure settings as possible.
Wolfram Desktop—as well as classic
Mathematica—primarily provides a notebook interface to the Wolfram Engine, running on a local desktop system. It's also possible to run Wolfram Engine directly—as a command-line program (e.g. through
WolframScript)—on a local computer system. And, of course, one can run the Wolfram Engine in the cloud, either through the full
Wolfram Cloud (
public or
private), or through more lightweight cloud and server offerings (both existing and forthcoming).
