InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
To test this, we will setup some benchmarks using pytest-benchmark, some sample data with a simple schema, and compare results between Python's dataclass, Pydantic v1, and v2.
I encourage you to checkout the official benchmarks for more realistic and detailed examples, and, as always, YMMV.
For those unfamiliar, Pydantic is currently implemented in Python and this rewrite shifts most of the code to Rust, a systems programming language touted as "blazingly fast" and safe.
It's worth noting that these improvements will also impact other libraries and frameworks that rely on Pydantic, such as FastAPI and AWS Lambda Powertools, which could deliver some transitive performance improvements to various projects that don't directly depend on Pydantic themselves.
If you work with backend APIs in Python, you've probably used or heard of Pydantic, perhaps from FastAPI. The library advertises itself as "data validation and settings management using Python type annotations" and it makes (de)serialization of data a breeze.1
