Redis with Python and MicroPython

Our next meeting will start at 19:00 (7 pm) on Tuesday 3rd October on Zoom.

Simon Prickett will give a talk:

Redis with Python and MicroPython

Simon Prickett is the Principal Developer Advocate at Redis and will be doing a Redis talk on Python going into streams and MicroPython. He enjoys projects that fuse hardware and software, especially with Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Simon brings experience gained from living and working on three different continents in industries including banking, logistics, IoT and Software as a Service platform development.

And quick talk summary:

In this talk I'll demonstrate a variety of ways that Python developers can incorporate the varied data structures offered by the Redis database into their applications. We'll begin by looking at some CPython use cases before moving to MicroPython. Using code running on a number of Raspberry Pi Pico microprocessors, you'll learn how to capture, consume and monitor fast moving data with Redis Streams. We'll demonstrate a system to manage room service requests at a busy hotel, showing how this powerful data structure can orchestrate complex workflows at speed.
