Alterlab Dask

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-dask

Scales pandas/NumPy workflows beyond memory with Dask distributed computing — parallel DataFrames, arrays, delayed task graphs, and cluster execution. Use when existing pandas/NumPy code must run on larger-than-RAM data or across clusters, for parallel file processing, distributed ML, or integration with existing pandas code. For out-of-core analytics on a single machine prefer vaex; for in-memory speed prefer polars. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
