Optimizing Large-Scale Data Processing: A Deep Dive into FireDucks vs. Pandas

Speaker: Vaibhav

As data scientists, we rely on Pandas for data preprocessing, but when dealing with large datasets, it struggles with performance. To overcome this, I explored various high-performance alternatives like DuckDB, Polars, cuDF, FireDucks. To my surprise, FireDucks delivers impressive speed improvements. In this session, I’ll share my experience comparing these tools and demonstrate why FireDucks is a game-changer for handling big data effortlessly.

AI Driven Software Testing
