work, booksnakes and a side dish of cherries

Another happy Firebird and Python user and programmer

For more than a year I’m employed by a company called Smantics Kommunikationsmanagement GmbH as a Python developer. The company offers multiple services related to communcation and its management in our modern world. Most of the time I’m working on the server part of a software stack called Visual Library.

The heart of the Visual Library software stack is a Python driven web application server. It’s built on top of CherryPy framework and driven by a Firebird database. The server utilizes a cornucopia of open source third party packages as well as commercial and proprietary software. The most noticable Python packages are lxml for XML and XSL(T), reportlab for PDF creation, Cython for optimization / library bindings and PyLucene for full text search.
