From bob.haffner at gmail.com Mon May 4 16:33:03 2015 From: bob.haffner at gmail.com (Bob Haffner) Date: Mon, 4 May 2015 09:33:03 -0500 Subject: [omaha] pyData - Dallas Conference In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I ended up going to this. It was my first pydata so I can?t compare to the others. However, it seemed to be more of a regional event in terms of speakers and attendees. My two big takeaways were Blaze and Bokeh. Both are open source projects driven by Continuum. Blaze aims to give you a common interface across multiple backends/data crunchers. So the aggregation statement below could be used against a Pandas dataframe or a postgres db or hdfs. Blaze does the translation and passes the workload off to the backend. import blaze as bz bz.by(db.iris.Species, longest=db.iris.PetalLength.max(), shortest=db.iris.PetalLength.min()) I use Pandas for most things, but I could see blaze being useful for bigger things. It also has a nice function called Into that moves data around between backends pretty easily. Bokeh is a very impressive data visualization module. You can produce sharp, interactive visualizations. You write python and bokeh translates it into javascript. I currently use matplotlib and occasionally seaborn, but I?m going to take a hard look at bokeh. I believe there?s a bokeh server for distribution and web stuff as well. Anyone have any experience with or opinions about blaze or bokeh?
