PyCon DE & PyData 2025

Dennis Weyland

Hey there! I'm Dennis Weyland, and I've been part of the Blue Yonder team for the last five years. I kicked off my career as a Data Scientist but soon found my groove in Data Engineering. Python has been my go-to language for the past seven years, and I love diving into project setups to make everything run smoothly. Before diving into my professional career, I studied Physics at KIT, where I completed my master's thesis and discovered my passion for Python software development and machine learning.

Outside of work I'm passionate about running, diving, and climbing.

Streamlining Python deployment with Pixi: A Perspective from production
Dennis Weyland

In our quest to improve Python deployments, we explored Pixi, a tool designed to enhance dependency management within the Conda ecosystem. This talk recounts our experience integrating Pixi into a setup used in production. We leveraged Pixi to create lockfiles, ensuring consistent builds, and to automate deployments via CI/CD pipelines. This integration led to greater reliability and efficiency, minimizing deployment errors and allowing us to concentrate more on development. Join us as we share how Pixi transformed our deployment process and offer insights into optimizing your own workflows.
