Python Memory Management: The Essential Guide

Python is not known to be a "fast" programming language. However, according to the 2020 Stack Overflow Developer Survey results, Python is the 2nd most popular programming language behind JavaScript (as you may have guessed). This is largely due to its super friendly syntax and its applicability for just about any purpose.

How to catch all exceptions in Python

One of the struggles developers face is how to catch all Python exceptions. Developers often categorize exceptions as coding mistakes that lead to errors when running the program. Some developers still fail to distinguish between errors and exceptions. In the case of Python application development, a python program terminates as soon as it encounters an unhandled error. So, to establish the difference between errors and exceptions, there are two types of errors.

Top 5 Python Memory Profilers

According to the Stackoverflow survey of 2019, Python programming language garnered 73.1% approval among developers. It ranks second to Rust and continues to dominate in Data Science and Machine Learning(ML). Python is a developers’ favorite. It is a high-level language known for its robustness and its core philosophy―simplicity over complexity. However, Python application’s performance is another story. Just like any other application, it has its share of performance issues.

Deploy Python Apps Into Production In Seconds!

Getting your Python code into production is the most rewarding thing you can do. It's where users meet your apps, and where you finally get recognition for the time, energy, and skill that you've poured into your code. But without the right platform, getting Python into production can be a real pain in the proverbial. Let Ben Wilcock (@benbravo73) show you how to do it in seconds using open-source tools.

Build Docker Containers For Python Apps Like A Pro

Python apps go great with containers. Docker, Kubernetes, Cloudfoundry, Public Cloud, Private Cloud, they're all awesome places to run your containers. But getting your apps into containers is a tricky business, particularly if you have tens or hundreds of apps to manage, and maintain. Your containers have to be secure, reproducible, and easy to rebuild when vulnerabilities strike or upgrades are required.

Make use of Python bundled with IPHost to create new monitors and alerts

Scripting languages (VBScript, Python, PowerShell etc) are both flexible and convenient to create small scripts, to handle a simple monitoring task (such as poll a device for data or execute custom alert). Python has an advantage of being general purpose cross-platform scripting language for years, with many well-known scripts either already available on the Net, or quick to compose.

Building a Python web application with Elastic App Search

This post is a brief summary of a presentation I gave recently where I deploy Elastic App Search, show off the ease of setup, data indexing, and relevance tuning, and take look at a few of the many refined APIs. It’s also written up in a codelab with step-by-step instructions for building a movies search engine app using Python Flask. The app will work on desktop or mobile and is a fast, simple, and reliable way to query the information.
