Talk: Making Python parallel, distributing Monte Carlo with Celery

Making Python parallel, distributing Monte Carlo with Celery

Bjoern, our CTO, is giving a hands-on talk about the topic at the

in London on September 19th, 6:30 PM.

Abstract

Celery is a distributed task queue for Python that is used in production systems to process millions of tasks a day. Celery scales easily which makes it an ideal platform for running computationally expensive Monte Carlo simulations. This talk is a hands-on introduction to Celery. You’ll learn what Celery is, what infrastructure it requires and how easily you can speed up calculation times by distributing Monte Carlo simulations across multiple nodes.
