quantmini 0.1.0

High-Performance Data Pipeline for Financial Market Data with Qlib Integration

High-Performance Data Pipeline for Financial Market Data

A production-ready data pipeline for processing Polygon.io S3 flat files into optimized formats for quantitative analysis and machine learning.

🎯 Key Features

• Adaptive Processing: Automatically scales from 24GB workstations to 100GB+ servers
• 70%+ Compression: Optimized Parquet and binary formats
• Sub-Second Queries: Partitioned data lake with predicate pushdown
• Incremental Updates: Process only new data using watermarks
• Apple Silicon Optimized: 2-3x faster on M1/M2/M3 chips
• Production Ready: Monitoring, alerting, validation, and error recovery

📊 Performance

Mode	Memory	Throughput	With Optimizations
Streaming	< 32GB	100K rec/s	500K rec/s
Batch	32-64GB	200K rec/s	1M rec/s
Parallel	> 64GB	500K rec/s	2M rec/s

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• macOS (Apple Silicon or Intel) or Linux
• Python 3.10+
• 24GB+ RAM (recommended: 32GB+)
• 1TB+ storage (SSD recommended)
• Polygon.io account with S3 flat files access

Installation

1. Install uv package manager:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

2. Clone and setup:

git clone <repository-url>
cd quantmini

# Create project structure
./create_structure.sh

# Create and activate virtual environment
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On macOS/Linux

3. Install dependencies:

uv pip install qlib polygon boto3 aioboto3 polars duckdb pyarrow psutil pyyaml

4. Configure credentials:

cp config/credentials.yaml.example config/credentials.yaml
# Edit config/credentials.yaml with your Polygon API keys

5. Run system profiler:

python -m src.core.system_profiler
# This will create config/system_profile.yaml

First Run

# Run daily pipeline (processes latest data)
python scripts/run_daily_pipeline.py

# Or backfill historical data
python scripts/run_backfill.py --start-date 2024-01-01 --end-date 2024-12-31

🔧 Configuration

Edit config/pipeline_config.yaml to customize:

• Processing mode: adaptive, streaming, batch, or parallel
• Data types: Enable/disable stocks, options, daily, minute data
• Compression: Choose snappy (fast) or zstd (better compression)
• Features: Configure which features to compute
• Optimizations: Enable Apple Silicon, async downloads, etc.

See CONFIGURATION.md for details.

🧪 Testing

# Run all tests
pytest

# Run with coverage
pytest --cov=src --cov-report=html

# Run specific test suite
pytest tests/unit/
pytest tests/integration/
pytest tests/performance/

🔍 Monitoring

Access monitoring dashboards:

# View health status
python scripts/check_health.py

# View performance metrics
cat logs/performance/performance_metrics.json

# Generate report
python scripts/generate_report.py

📊 Data Types

The pipeline processes four types of data from Polygon.io:

1. Stock Daily Aggregates: Daily OHLCV for all US stocks
2. Stock Minute Aggregates: Minute-level data per symbol
3. Options Daily Aggregates: Daily options data per underlying
4. Options Minute Aggregates: Minute-level options data (all contracts)

Qlib Binary Format (ML-Ready)

🚦 Pipeline Stages

1. Download: Async S3 downloads with connection pooling
2. Ingest: Adaptive processing based on available memory
3. Validate: Data quality checks
4. Enrich: Feature engineering (alpha, returns, etc.)
5. Convert: Transform to qlib binary format
6. Query: Fast access via DuckDB/Polars

🔐 Security

• Never commit config/credentials.yaml (in .gitignore)
• Store credentials in environment variables for production
• Use AWS Secrets Manager or similar for cloud deployments
• Rotate API keys regularly

🐛 Troubleshooting

Memory Errors

# Reduce memory usage
export MAX_MEMORY_GB=16

# Force streaming mode
export PIPELINE_MODE=streaming

S3 Rate Limits

# Reduce concurrent downloads
# Edit config/pipeline_config.yaml:
# optimizations.async_downloads.max_concurrent: 4

Slow Performance

# Enable profiling
# Edit config/pipeline_config.yaml:
# monitoring.profiling.enabled: true

# Run and check logs/performance/
