In this talk, I will offer my perspective on the modern data tools landscape and in particular user-facing tools for interactive data science and data exploration. The latest trends of composable data systems and embeddable query engines like DuckDB and DataFusion create both challenges and opportunities to create a more coherent and productive stack of tools for both end user data scientists and developers building data systems.
PyData is an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States. PyData provides a forum for the international community of users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The global PyData network promotes discussion of best practices, new approaches, and emerging technologies for data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. PyData communities approach data science using many languages, including (but not limited to) Python, Julia, and R.
PyData conferences aim to be accessible and community-driven, with novice to advanced level presentations. PyData tutorials and talks bring attendees the latest project features along with cutting-edge use cases.
