We've come across many clients who are interested in taking the computational notebooks developed by their data scientists, and putting them directly into the codebase of production applications. Data science ideas do need to move out of notebooks and into production, but trying to deploy that notebooks as a code artifact breaks a multitude of good software practices. Predictably, that results in
Day 8: Start with something that works
What it is: FioSynth is a benchmark tool used to automate the execution of storage workload suites and to parse results. It contains a base set of block level storage workloads, synthesized from production I/O traces, that simulate a diverse range of Facebook production services. It is useful for predicting how a storage device will […]

Day 5: drawing lots of faces with sketch-rnn
The convention when contributing to projects on version control platforms is that there is the main branch containing the functional codebase. Then, there are other branches in which several developers can work on copies of the main to either add a new feature, fix a bug, and so on. If there is any error, it can easily be traced and fixed before integrating the changes into the main branch. It can
