How to Run Coroutines Concurrently with asyncio.gather in Python
Run multiple async coroutines concurrently and collect their results in the order they were passed.
import asyncio
async def fetch_data(name: str, delay: float) -> str:
"""Simulate an async operation (e.g., API call) with a delay."""
await asyncio.sleep(delay)
return f"{name} data (after {delay}s)"
async def main() -> None:
"""Run multiple coroutines concurrently with asyncio.gather."""
resul…Cross Shard Query Scatter Gather Mock in Python
Simulate a distributed database cross-shard query using a scatter-gather pattern with a mock Python implementation.
from dataclasses import dataclass
from typing import List, Dict
@dataclass
class NodeResponse:
node_id: int
data: Dict[str, float]
def mock_query_shard(shard_id: int, shard_data: Dict[str, float], query: str) -> NodeResponse:
"""Simulate querying a single shard, returning matches whose value > 50."""
