MLOps Coffee Sessions #14 Conversation with the Creators of Dask // Hugo Bowne-Anderson and Matthew Rocklin

57 min • 12 oktober 2020

Dask
What is it?
Parallelism for analytics
What is parallelism?
Doing a lot at once by splitting tasks into smaller subtasks which can be processed in parallel (at the same time)
Distributed work across multiple machines and then combining the results
Helpful for CPU bound - doing a bunch of calculations on the CPU. The rate at which process progresses is limited by the speed of the CPU
Concurrency?
Similar but a but things don’t have to happen at the same time, they can happen asynchronously. They can overlap.
Shared state
Helpful to I/O bound - networking, reading from disk, etc. The rate at which a process progresses is limited by the speed of the I/O subsystem.
Multi-core vs distributed
Multi-core is a single processor with 2 or more cores that can cooperate through threads - multithreading
Distributed is across multiple nodes communicating via HTTP or RPC Why is this hard?
Python has it challenges due to GIL, other languages don't have this problem
Shared state can lead to potential race conditions, deadlocks, etc
Coordination work across the machines
For analytics?
Calculating some statistics on a large dataset can be tricky if it can’t fit in memory
