Green threads in Python [EuroPython 2017 - Talk - 2017-07-12 - PyCharm Room] [Rimini, Italy] This talk is for general public with problems to scale. The good background for this talk is people with minimal knowledge about threads. After this talk I expect that the audience can be enable to understand multiprocessing, when use and which tools and methods are appropriate for each case. Understanding threads It's the first moment on the talk. Here I'll speak about the thread theory and what happen when we use threads on the OS Threads and multiprocess API I'll give simple examples about what python give us to use threads and multiprocessing perhaps with two APIs https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/multiprocessing.html Understanding Green threads Here I'll speak about green threads theory and what happen when we use green threads on our OS Green thread Patterns and tools Here I'll show few examples with keep alive patterns, discuss about a few tools and show gevent and asyncio examples Parallelism x asynchronism I'll show the diference between parallelism and asynchronism discussing about the two theories Why, when and how It's is the last talk moment and I'll explain the how complex is work with multiprocess showing cases like queues consume and APIs consum
