Cinder is a high-performance Python runtime implementation based on CPython. It is designed as an execution environment optimized for large-scale distributed systems and cloud environments.
The project integrates a distributed memory cache and an asynchronous memory layer to manage data across multiple network nodes. It also provides a native C extension framework for developing high-performance compiled modules that link directly into the interpreter memory space.
The system covers capabilities for asynchronous data retrieval, large-scale execution, and the integration of embedded scripting within native applications.
