Asyncio in production: what nobody tells you

Granada, Spain

What I’ve learned using Python Asyncio in production, the good, the bad and the ugly.

Summary

Asyncio is great. Until it isn’t.

I talk about the most common mistakes when using Asyncio, the performance problems nobody mentions, how to debug asynchronous code and the patterns that work in production.

Based on real experience

No theory. It’s what I’ve learned building systems that process millions of events per day.

Impact

After the talk, a lot of people wrote to tell me I’d saved them months of headaches.
