You don't use Jupyter notebooks in production; they are super useful for pitching ideas to clients/bosses and doing some early prototyping. I feel sorry for anyone that has to work with "pure data scientists" that have no clue about software engineering practices...
- cwyers 8y agoIt depends on what you're doing, yeah? In RMarkdown notebooks... yeah, I wouldn't write models in one. But if the focus is on embedding some visualizations and tables into a document, and then refreshing the document to every so often pull in new data, I can see that as a production use for a notebook. TL;DR: Can be useful for reporting, wouldn't use it anywhere else in the pipeline.
- brylie 8y agoFWIW, Netflix uses Jupyter notebooks in production, using nteract UI: https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/notebook-innovation-591ee3221233 https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/notebook-innovation-591e... https://nteract.io/ https://nteract.io/ This approach seems promising, particularly as it facilitates cross-disciplinary collaboration.
