PyData Global - Let's get you started with asynchronous programming

From zero to writing async code in 25 minutes

Thank you to everyone who attended my talk on asynchronous programming in Python at PyData Global 2024.

• The slides from the talk are available here.

• The code from the talk, including the little service we made, is available here.

I wrote a local test server you can run, which somewhat replicates the behaviour of the real server I used in the talk—though there are some differences.

The service runs asynchronously. The red (first column) is retrieving the video metadata, the blue is retrieving the transcript, the green is running the model, and the yellow is saving the result to the database.

If you missed the talk, you can catch up if you are a PyData Global attendee. For everyone else, it will be available on YouTube after the conference. I will let you know when it’s released.

If you would like to be notified when these are added, you can subscribe for notifications.
