Orchest – Data Science Pipelines

Hello Hacker News! We are Rick & Yannick from Orchest (https://www.orchest.io - https://github.com/orchest/orchest). We're building a visual pipeline tool for data scientists. The tool can be considered to be high-code because you write your own Python/R notebooks and scripts, but we manage the underlying infrastructure to make it 'just work™'. You can think of it as a simplified version of Kubeflow. We created Orchest to free data scientists from the tedious engineering related tasks of their job. Similar to how companies like Netflix, Uber and Booking.com…

In plain words

Orchest is a visual pipeline tool that lets data scientists write Python and R notebooks and scripts while the platform handles underlying infrastructure management. It automates engineering tasks like cloud configuration and distributed training setup, reducing the need for software engineering expertise. Designed for data scientists who want to focus on analysis rather than infrastructure work, Orchest simplifies pipeline orchestration compared to more complex frameworks.

  • I built an open-source data pipeline tool in Go2024 · github.com · ▲200

    Every data pipeline job I had to tackle required quite a few components to set up: - One tool to ingest data - Another one to transform it - If you wanted to run Python, set up an orchestrator - If you need to check the data, a data quality tool Let alone this being hard to set up and taking time, it is also pretty high-maintenance. I had to do a lot of infra work, and while this being billable hours for me I didn’t enjoy the work at all. For some parts of it, there were nice solutions like dbt, but in the end for an end-to-end workflow, it didn’t work. That’s why I decided to build an…

    dstack – an open-source tool to build data applications easily2020 · ▲134

    Dear HN, I am Riwaj, the cofounder of dstack.ai (https://github.com/dstackai). A few months ago, we built an online service that allows users to publish data visualizations from Python or R. The idea was to build a tool that did not require additional programming or front-end development for publishing data visualizations. Such a code can be invoked from either Jupyter notebook, RMarkdown, Python, or R scripts. Once the data is pushed, it can be accessed via a browser. Open-sourcing dstack: During our customer discovery phase, we realized that dstack.ai should integrate a lot…

    Hi HN, We're Anna, Adrian, Marcin and Matt, developers of dlt. dlt is an open source library to automatically create datasets out of messy, unstructured data sources. You can use the library to move data from about anywhere into most of well known SQL and vector stores, data lakes, storage buckets, or local engines like DuckDB. It automates many cumbersome data engineering tasks and can by handled by anyone who knows Python. Here’s our Github: https://github.com/dlt-hub/dlt Here’s our Colab demo:…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
