Do you want to know the latest in big data analytics frameworks? Have you ever heard of Apache Arrow? Rust? Ballista? In this episode I speak with Andy Grove one of the main authors of Apache Arrow and Ballista compute engine.Andy explains some challenges while he was designing the Arrow and Ballista memory models and he describes some amazing solutions.

Pandas vs Rust (Ep. 144)

Pandas is the de-facto standard for data loading and manipulation. Python is the de-facto programming language for such operations. Rust is the underdog. Or is it?In this episode I am showing you why that is no longer the case.

Concurrent is not parallel - Part 2 (Ep. 143)

In plain English, concurrent and parallel are synonyms. Not for a CPU. And definitely not for programmers. In this episode I summarize the ways to parallelize on different architectures and operating systems.
Rock-star data scientists must know how concurrency works and when to use it IMHO.

This is one of the most dynamic and fascinating topics: API technologies for machine learning.
It's always fun to build ML models. But how about serving them in the real world? In this episode I speak about three must-know technologies to place your model behind an API.
