Jupyter Track @ Strata SF : M Pacer, Chris Holdgraf

This year at
Strata
San Francisco, IBM sponsored a series of talks in a
track
designed for people using
Jupyter
Notebooks. Chris Holdgraf (
UC Berkeley Institute for Data Science
) and M Pacer (
Netflix
) were two of the many excellent speakers in that track, and they both shared valuable presentations.
For the uninitiated, Project Jupyter is the open source project focused on providing a web-based interface that can host comments, markup, as well as execute Python. Chris Holdgraf elegantly would explain it is also "a community of people and an ecosystem of open tools and standards for interactive computing." It's a powerful tool for those who need to do exploratory data analysis, create plots, and then share those results. Besides the graphical user interface, which makes it easy to share visualizations, the notebooks themselves are easily shareable - all you need is a copy of that file. Both Chris and M offer their compelling use cases.
M Pacer's talk offered a view of how one would use notebooks for semantically rich conversations. As a Jupyter notebook holds state (is a record), it is the basis of communicating shared representations between people (conversation), but importantly M also teaches the stack in which it is easy for a person to communicate to/from a notebook. Check out M Pacer's
talk
if you're ready to learn this superpower.
Chris Holdgraf shared how UC Berkeley has built its ecosystem to teach its undergraduate students in data science using Jupyter book. Chris and the Institute for Data Science believe in the radical idea that some data science should be taught to everyone, but UC Berkeley has many students so how do you build a scalable stack for that many tenants? Jupyter does much to provide an interactive environment based on an open stack. Check out Chris Holdgraf's
talk
if you're ready to see projects that enable that solution, and what it would look like for any enterprise struggling to connect many users with content and computation.
If you're curious about Project Jupyter and how IBM is
involved
, as well as other open source
projects
