Instagram is a photo and video sharing social networking service that allows users to upload media, apply filters, organize content with hashtags, and share posts publicly or with followers. The platform supports photos, short-form videos, Stories that disappear after 24 hours, and Reels for short-form video content.

An example of published research
Product Overview on DataChain, shown as an example.
DataChain lets Python users turn files in S3, GCS, and Azure into versioned, typed datasets that are queryable at warehouse speed, using the Compute Engine for heavy file-level processing. The Compute Engine runs heavy Python work on object-storage files, including large language model calls, model inference, multimodal extraction, and per-row input and output. It runs in parallel by default, handles network round-trips asynchronously, distributes work across machines through Studio, and can recover from checkpoints.
The Dataset DB holds typed, versioned datasets deposited by chains and serves filter, join, group_by, and similarity-search operations over them at warehouse speed. The transpiler dispatches per-row Python to the Compute Engine and per-column filter, join, group_by, and similarity expressions to the Dataset DB; Pydantic types flow through both without separate schema registration.
