Writing results to Cloud Storage
- [Instructor] When all data exploration is done, the results are usually returned back to some persistent storage for later use. In this example, we are going to write the conversion ratio by discount percent into a CSV file in Cloud Storage. To do that, we first convert the data frame into a CSV string by using the StringIO function. We then print the contents of the CSV string variable to check its content. We then use the Cloud Storage command line API to write the contents of the CSV string variable into an object in Cloud Storage. Once the strip is done, we can go to Cloud Storage Browser and check to see if the object we have returned has been successfully created. As you can see, the file is created here with the intended contents. This is a simple example of doing end-to-end exploratory data analysis on Datalab.
