Alexander Hendorf - Data Analysis and Map-Reduce with mongoDB and pymongo [EuroPython 2015] [22 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain] The MongoDB aggregation framework provides a means to calculate aggregated values without having to use map-reduce. While map-reduce is powerful, it is often more difficult than necessary for many simple aggregation tasks, such as totaling or averaging field values. See how to use the build-in data-aggregation-pipelines for averages, summation, grouping, reshaping. See how to work with documents, sub- documents, grouping by year, month, day, etc. This talk will give many (live) examples how to make the most of your data with pymongo with a few lines of code. added 28/07/15: iPython notebook & sample data can be found in [this git][1] [1]: https://bitbucket.org/alanderex/ep2015-dataanalysis-with-mongodb

Matt Bennett - Nameko for Microservices [EuroPython 2015] [21 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain] Microservices are popping up everywhere. This talk will explain what this fashionable new architecture is, including the pros and cons of adopting it, and then discuss an open-source framework that can help you do so -- [https://nameko.readthedocs.org][1]. Nameko assists you in writing services with well-defined boundaries that are easy to test. By leveraging some neat design patterns and providing test helpers, it also encourages good service structure and clean code. [1]: https://nameko.readthedocs.org

Marc-André Lemburg - Python idioms to help you write good code [EuroPython 2015] [21 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain] Python focuses a lot on writing readable code and also tries to make solutions obvious, but this doesn't necessarily mean that you cannot write unreadable code or design your code in ways which makes it hard to extend or maintain. This talk will show some useful idioms to apply when writing Python code, how to structure your modules and also goes into details on which techniques to use and which to think about twice, based on 20 years of experience writing Python.

Shane Evans - Web Scraping Best Practises [EuroPython 2015] [21 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain] Python is a fantastic language for writing web scrapers. There is a large ecosystem of useful projects and a great developer community. However, it can be confusing once you go beyond the simpler scrapers typically covered in tutorials. In this talk, we will explore some common real-world scraping tasks. You will learn best practises and get a deeper understanding of what tools and techniques can be used and how to deal with the most challenging of web scraping projects! We will cover crawling and extracting data at different scales - from small websites to large focussed crawls. This will include an overview of automated extraction techniques. We'll touch on common difficulties like rendering pages in browsers, proxy management, and crawl architecture. **Slides**: [https://speakerdeck.com/shaneaevans/web-scraping-best- practises][1] [1]: https://speakerdeck.com/shaneaevans/web-scraping-best-practises

Carrie Anne Philbin - Keynote: Designed for Education: A Python Solution [EuroPython 2015] [23 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain] The problem of introducing children to programming and computer science has seen growing attention in the past few years. Initiatives like Raspberry Pi, Code Club, code.org, (and many more) have been created to help solve this problem. With the introduction of a national computing curriculum in the UK, teachers have been searching for a text based programming language to help teach computational thinking as a follow on from visual languages like Scratch. The educational community has been served well by Python, benefiting from its straight-forward syntax, large selection of libraries, and supportive community. Education-focused summits are now a major part of most major Python Conferences. Assistance in terms of documentation and training is invaluable, but perhaps there are technical means of improving the experience of those using Python in education. Clearly the needs of teachers and their students are different to those of the seasoned programmer. Children are unlikely to come to their teachers with frustrations about the Global Interpreter Lock! But issues such as usability of IDEs or comprehensibility of error messages are of utmost importance. In this keynote, Carrie Anne will discuss existing barriers to Python becoming the premier language of choice for teaching computer science, and how learning Python could be helped immensely through tooling and further support from the Python developer community.

Mandy Waite - Keynote: So, I have all these Docker containers, now what? [EuroPython 2015] [24 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain] You've solved the issue of process-level reproducibility by packaging up your apps and execution environments into a number of Docker containers. But once you have a lot of containers running, you'll probably need to coordinate them across a cluster of machines while keeping them healthy and making sure they can find each other. Trying to do this imperatively can quickly turn into an unmanageable mess! Wouldn't it be helpful if you could declare to your cluster what you want it to do, and then have the cluster assign the resources to get it done and to recover from failures and scale on demand? Kubernetes (http://kubernetes.io) is an open source, cross platform cluster management and container orchestration platform that simplifies the complex tasks of deploying and managing your applications in Docker containers. You declare a desired state, and Kubernetes does all the work needed to create and maintain it. In this talk, we’ll look at the basics of Kubernetes and at how to map common applications to these concepts. This will include a hands-on demonstration and visualization of the steps involved in getting an application up and running on Kubernetes.
