The world is flooded with data. Much of this data is and will continue to be "dark," meaning that it is in files across a file system and outside a specific database.  In this talk, I will discuss how Blaze, Dask, and Numba are adding to the very capable PyData Stack for lighting up the world's dark data and bringing easy, available analytics power to all data.
