🚀 Vaex: huge data without running out of memory

Working with huge datasets is often a problem when they don’t fit in RAM. Vaex 🧠💾 is a Python library designed to analyze millions or billions of rows without loading everything into memory.

🔑 What makes it special?

  • 💤 Lazy evaluation: it only computes what you actually need.
  • 🗺️ Uses advanced techniques to work with data larger than your RAM.
  • ⚡ Fast operations (filters and aggregations) optimized in C++.
  • 🐼 API very similar to pandas, ideal for scaling without relearning everything.

🧩 For beginners:
Vaex lets you analyze huge files as if they were small, preventing your computer from “freezing”.

Perfect for when pandas is no longer enough 📊🔥
