What problem does it solve?

Vaex enables interactive analysis of datasets too large to fit in memory by using out-of-core DataFrames and memory-mapped IO, allowing scalable exploration without upgrading hardware.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Out-of-core DataFrames: process billions of rows without loading all data into RAM.
  • Lazy evaluation & virtual columns: build complex pipelines without immediate computation.
  • Fast aggregations & I/O: efficient statistics, binning, and seamless loading from CSV, Parquet, HDF5, or Arrow formats.
  • Visualization & ML integration: scalable plotting and machine learning workflows on big data.
  • Real-world use cases: explore massive scientific datasets, financial time series, or large logs with responsive feedback.

Quick Start

Open a large dataset with vaex.open('path/to/data') and start interactive analysis without loading everything into memory.
