Last November, Sam had the pleasure of sitting down for a conversation with Ville Tuulos, Manager of Machine Learning Infrastructure at Netflix. They spoke just hours after he announced the open-sourcing of their Python library, Metaflow. At the time, we’d planned to launch a new video series called TWIML Democasts as a way to walk through concrete technologies in a visual way that the podcast format doesn’t allow.
During the interview, Sam threw out the suggestion that if there was enough interest, we’d record a Democast for Metaflow. Well, the people have spoken and that time has come! We’re excited to share our third ever Democast, in which Ville gives us an in-depth, end-to-end demo of the entire Metaflow platform, including:
The Philosophy of Metaflow
Metaflow’s Tutorial School
Metaflow’s Relationship to Netflix’s Papermill
Workflow Execution Systems
Scalability
And much more! We encourage you to check out Sam’s original interview with Ville, and of course, the Metaflow documentation is a great resource to follow along with while you’re watching the video.
