Speaker: Sourav Saha
Topic: Accelerate your pandas application with FireDucks; A multi-threaded DataFrame library with JIT Compiler

In this talk, I will introduce FireDucks, that comes with a multithreaded kernel backend written in C++, a JIT compiler to auto-detect and optimize the existing performance issues involved in a user program, and a pure python frontend highly compatible with pandas allowing a native pandas application to be executed as it is without any manual changes. With the promise of highly compatible pandas APIs and the revved-up performance, FireDucks can serve the demands of this digital age and transform the arduous task of data wrangling into a more efficient and less taxing endeavor. It can be simply installed on any Linux system using pip.
