Building a recommendation engine inside Postgres with Python and Pandas (2020)
I guess I'm wondering what the point of pandas is here.  And maybe in general?  We hired a data engineer awhile ago and he kept complaining that the "python kernel" was crashing and he needed bigger instances to run his pandas scripts.  I took a look and realized he was trying to pull the entire database of a nearly a billion rows into python to do some trivial joins, groupings, and filtering.  I'm thinking, what are you doing man.<p>I think this is pretty common in the pandas world right
