The global PyData network promotes discussion of best practices, new approaches, and emerging technologies for data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. PyData communities approach data science using many languages, including (but not limited to) Python, Julia, and R.
We aim to be an accessible, community-driven conference with novice to advanced-level presentations. We value the participation of each member of the PyData community and want everyone to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience. Accordingly, all members are expected to show respect and courtesy to each other at all times.
PyData is an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States. PyData provides a forum for the international community of users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The PyDataย Code of Conductย governs this meetup.

Patrice Chaula:
A real-time e-commerce personalisation pipeline using Django, Kafka and Apache Spark. Django captures product and category views, Kafka streams the click data, and Spark analyses it to identify each userโs preferred categories. The results are returned to Django as JSON and used to personalise product recommendations.Phalo Mihlanli:
Mapping API endpoints to uncover security weaknesses. Endpoint analysis is the process of identifying, mapping, and understanding API endpoints to discover security weaknesses. Before exploiting an API, an attacker must fully understand what endpoints exist, how they behave, and what data they expose. This talk explains how It's just marked down though understanding API endpoints โ their requests, parameters, and responses โ can reveal common weaknesses such as excessive data exposure and broken authorization, showing how small design decisions can lead to serious API vulnerabilities.Terms and Conditions
