<h3>Description</h3><p>Often, the most convenient way to deploy a machine model is an API. It allows accessing it from various programming environments and also decouples the development and deployment of the models from its use.</p> <p>However, building an good API is hard. It involves many nitty-gritties and many of them need to repeated everytime an API is built. Also, it is very important to have a client library so that the API can be easily accessed. If you every plan to use it from Javascript directly, then you need to worry about cross-origin-resource-sharing etc. All things add up and building APIs for machine very tedious.</p> <p>In this talk demonstrates how deploying machine learning models an APIs can be made fun by using right programming abstractions.

<h3>Description</h3><p>The wayback machine is a high traffic website that has been online for over a decade. It was a mostly Java application. One component of the application is the Liveweb proxy. This is an HTTP proxy that archives a resource which is requested through it and the core data source for the wayback machine. The liveweb proxy was rearchitected from scratch in Python and deployed on the actual website and has been running for a few months now without a single hitch. There were limitations in the standard library which needed to be worked around, careful tuning of parameters to balance disk I/O and memory usage, fine details of the HTTP protocol that needed to be understood and respected. This talk discusses the architecture and design of the new system to handle the kind of traffic and patterns which are expected of an archiving proxy and how it was deployed.</p> 2012-09-28T00:00:00+00:002012-09-28T00:00:00+00:00Anand Chitipothutag:pyvideo.org,2012-09-28:/pycon-india-2012/solving-puzzles-with-python-13.html
