What we’re about
We organize tech talks, live coding sessions, and social events about Python and its ecosystem.
We'll cover both beginner and advanced level topics, so feel free to join regardless of you seniority. Our events are not formal, and we love building a community that has fun meeting together.
Our events are free and open to all the Pythonistas out there.
📣 Our call for speakers for the our next events in 2024/2025 is open! Submit your talk here: https://sessionize.com/python-milano-monthly-meetups

The lakehouse architecture has become a foundational design for modern data and AI workloads. But this flexibility comes at a cost: users and system developers must navigate multiple APIs, conflicting abstractions, and overlapping execution models. What if we started from scratch, with simplicity in mind? In this talk, we discuss the technical challenges of building a "Function-as-a-Service" (FaaS) lakehouse: if workloads were “just” chained functions, users and developers could easily reason about the full data lifecycle!We argue that existing FaaS platforms were never designed for data-intensive workflows. To address this, we built a new system from the ground up using object storage and open formats. Re-purposing lessons from OpenLambda, we deploy functions up to 15× faster than AWS Lambda. By extending Apache Iceberg’s isolation with Git-like primitives, we support multi-language transactions with formal correctness proofs. Finally, we show how ephemeral functions, Arrow-native caching, and decoupled catalogs can simulate a full warehouse.
We conclude by emphasizing the role of user-facing APIs for adoption in real-world settings, and sharing late-breaking results from our ongoing research.
