Data pipelines & processing
ETL-style flows, batch transforms, validation, and moving data between formats.
Map Partition Over Chunks in Python with Multiprocessing and Mock
Process data in chunks across multiple CPU cores using multiprocessing Pool.map, and mock the chunk function to test partitioning behavior without heavy computation.
from multiprocessing import Pool
from unittest.mock import patch, Mock
def process_chunk(chunk):
return [x * x for x in chunk]
def map_partition_over_chunks(data, chunk_size, process_func=process_chunk):
chunks = [data[i:i + chunk_size] for i in range(0, len(data), chunk_size)]

…Parallel Extract Multiple Sources with Threads in Python
Extract data from multiple sources in parallel using ThreadPoolExecutor and verify results match sequential processing.
import threading
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
def extract_from_source(source):
"""Simulate extracting data from a source."""
return f"Data from {source}"
def main():
sources = ["source_a", "source_b", "source_c", "source_d"]
# Sequential extraction for comparison
