Data extraction scripts made 65% faster through Python parallelism.

Context

The work was about data extracted from the web and social networks. The extraction scripts ran sequentially, and their duration limited what the team could collect.

My role

Data Engineer intern, five months, on extraction and scraping.

Approach

Parallelise the extraction in Python rather than rewrite the scripts, and extend the scraping to social networks.

Outcome

65% of extraction time saved.
