PyF 2.0 Now Available
Version 2.0 of PyF, an open source Python framework and platform used for processing large amounts of data is now available.
In a blog post today, Jonathan Schemoul announced the release of PyF 2.0. This open source Python framework is composed of different layers: core layer--pyf.dataflow, network layer--pyf.manager, componentized layer--pyf.componentized and webservice--pyf.services. According to the website, at the core level, PyF 2.0 has reused, embedded, and extended another library called zflow and each level is based on the level directly under it.
