In this video we benchmark some of the python pandas alternative libraries and benchmark their speed on a large dataset. We look at four different libraries: Dask, Modin, Ray and Vaex. Pandas is a very popular library used by data scientists who code in python and other libraries exist that claim to be faster than pandas. We put them to the test and see which is the fastest!
