- _Faust_ - a microservices framework which provides abstractions for stream processing with stateful agents that process infinite streams of messages built on top of [_Kafka_](https://kafka.apache.org/) for pub-sub and queue based messaging (extensible), [_RocksDB_](https://rocksdb.org/) as local persistent tables store and (optionally) [_Redis_](https://redis.io/) as distributed cache. Co-founded by [_Celery_](https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/index.html) founder.

- _Airflow_ - A workflow framework for orchestrating distributed scheduled/triggered workflows (a.k.a DAGs) described using Python scripts such that workers can execute tasks (a.k.a operators) in workflows. Built on top of SQL databases for workflow state persistence and can execute on a cluster directly using [_Celery_](https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/getting-started/)or [_Dask_](https://dask.org/), on a [_Kubernetes_](https://kubernetes.io/) cluster, or managed in [AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/managed-workflows-for-apache-airflow/)/[GCP](https://cloud.google.com/composer). Comes with several core operators and there's a great deal of [independent ones](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow-providers/operators-and-hooks-ref/index.html) and a [registry of built-in & community provided ones](https://registry.astronomer.io/).

- the Linux subsystem can be used
- _Ray_ - A workers & actors framework for implementing distributed, fault tolerant and scalable applications specialized for data science but usable for any distributed computing. Workers are stateless, actors are stateful, both are Python processes and therefore heavyweight and coarse grained. [Ray has an academic whitepaper](https://www.usenix.org/system/files/osdi18-moritz.pdf).

Code Quality and Linting
- _Flake8_
- VS Code Python Linting - so VS Code will run _MyPy_, _Flake8_ (and others)
- VS Code _Black_ and _isort_
- Github action for Python Code Quality and Linting
- _flake8-builtins_ - checks for accidental use of builtin functions as names
- _flake8-comprehensions_ - checks for misuse or lack of use of comprehensions
- _flake8-logging-format_ - ensures logs use extra arguments and exception()
- _flake8-mutable_ - checks for mutable default parameter values Python issue
- _pep8-naming_ - checks that names follow Python standards defined in PEP8
- _flake8-pytest-style_ - check that pytest unit tests are written according to style
- _flake8-simplify_ - _ checks for general Python best practices for simpler code
- _Black_
- _isort_
- _MyPy_

Tips and Tricks
- Centralize imports in a reusable imports file
- Official docs reference
- Efficient string concat - converse memory that would be used in loop of string concat ops
- here
- Parameter Specific Variables
- Python's logging source code
- Translate (some) LINQ to Python - linq_ library above
- Correctly executing sync/async generators
- Multi-core async IO
- Fork-join pattern with pool executors - join concurrency pattern [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork%E2%80%93join_model).
- Limiting concurrency for large number of async IO tasks
- Limiting concurrency for outgoing HTTP requests sent with _aiohttp_
- Multi-core async IO

Environment setup and installations
- Hyper-V - V works as well, for personal development it's a matter of preference, you can read more [here](https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/virtualbox-vs-vmware-vs-hyper-v/).
- Windows - for Windows make sure to have both Python and its scripts in your PATH environment variables, they'll be in your Python installation directory, example:
