Big Data analytics is already outdated at Yandex. We need insights and action items from our logs and databases. In this new environment speed of prototyping comes to the first place. I’m going to give an overview how we use Python and Jupyter to create prototypes that amaze and inspire real product creation.
Role of quick prototyping
In a leading IT companies almost any idea could be implemented. But how to decide which of those brilliant plans to undertake? And what if you are an self-sufficient analyst that is facing a completely new challenge every week? Today we are creating an automated self-compiling PowerPoint presentation for our CTO, tomorrow we are creating an URL thematics classifier for the whole Internet, and the day after we need to visualize some of your conclusions based on terabytes of logs.
The good way to solve it is to out-source, or ask a separate team to make a good-looking interface. But the best way is to do it this week, this day. And the Swiss army knife (that isn’t good; it is good enough) we are using is Python and Jupyter.
Case studies
Here is a number of cases that are solved with ease using Jupyter.
