I’m excited to be giving a talk at the Data Science Lab meetup which has recently started in London. The topic is going to be how to use the open source Cloud Foundry platform for data science.

I’m very happy to be giving a talk at the latest PyData conference in New York this weekend.

This is a long post but I wanted a place to collect all the code I am showing in my talk and to provide a few more resources for those interested in trying out Python on Cloud Foundry further.

Resources

• Simple Flask app
• Slides from the talk
• My new Cloud Foundry buildpack using conda
• Video of Flask app deployment
• Update: Video of PyData NY talk

What is Cloud Foundry?

My talk is about how to use Python and the PyData stack on Cloud Foundry the open source cloud platform. Cloud Foundry started life at VMware and development transferred to Pivotal when it was formed. Cloud Foundry has grown much bigger since then with over 30 companies joining together to form the Cloud Foundry Foundation which will guide the development of the open source project.
