Dask

Parallel computing library that scales Python workflows

About Dask

A flexible library for parallel computing in Python that scales familiar tools such as NumPy, pandas and scikit-learn to larger-than-memory datasets across clusters of machines. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
