The High-Energy Physics experiments at CERN produce a high volume of data. It is not possible to analyze big chunks of it within a reasonable time by any single machine. The ROOT framework was recently extended with the distributed computing capabilities for massively parallelized RDataFrame applications. This approach, using the MapReduce pattern underneath, made the heavy computations much more approachable even for the newcomers.
