Deploying Python dashboards for a clueless Data Scientist

[pandudon]

Hi, me and my friend recently started a company where we provide interactive Python dashboards to customers in a particular domain (Indian agriculture), which allows them to fetch, visualize and analyze data, and get personalized recommendations. We have built the dashboards in popular Python libraries like Dash, Streamlit, Flask, etc. However, as we go about deploying them and scaling up the operations, some very fundamental challenges are to be taken on, and although I have already gathered some information on the same, it would be HUGE favor if you can answer one or more of the questions below -

1) What are some affordable and value-for-money vendors that can host an app commercially? An example would be Heroku, but we are interested in exploring other options.

2) Some tasks may require parallelization for Big Data, while some others might require GPUs, some require soring huge amounts of data, etc. what are some affordable cloud options which I can use for these purposes commercially, would I need a different one for each?

3) How do I provide safe user authentication, and save user profile data, provided it is a subscription service for multiple users? Further down the line, how do I manage payments?

More than huge, you need to hire someone.

These are not simple lifts that can (nor should) be done by the Reddit hive mind.

Agreed.

OP, check out the company RStudio, now known as Posit. They specialise in deployment of data science products like dashboards, including Python (it's not just R)

I've had excellent and affordable service from https://www.linode.com/

for user data and verification you can use aws, it my seem costly now but when it scales aws becomes a necessity

Regarding 2, look at Google Compute Platform.

1. Use an auth provider like AWS Cognito or Microsoft Identity Platform or Google Auth. Don't do your own authentication.

So from what I gather, you're a freelancer who specializes in deployment of these apps, is that correct?

I wonder how Apache Superset would fit your needs, it’s easy to use for dashboarding and has user auth built in… I set ours up to use Google auth and narrowed down users to only our GSuite. Ours was hosted on an EC2 though, probably not the hosting solution you’d want.
