Dynamic DES

Dynamic DES is a high-performance, real-time control plane for SimPy.

It bridges the gap between static discrete-event simulations and the live world by allowing you to update simulation parameters (arrivals, service times, capacities) and stream telemetry and events via Kafka, Redis, or PostgreSQL without stopping the simulation.

Key Features

  • ⚡ Real-Time Control: Synchronize SimPy with the system clock using DynamicRealtimeEnvironment.
  • 🔗 Dynamic Registry: Dynamic, path-based updates (e.g., Line_A.arrival.rate) that trigger instant logic changes.
  • 🛡️ Enterprise Ready: Native **kwargs passthrough for SASL, mTLS, OAuth, and AWS IAM Kafka clusters.
  • 📦 Pluggable Serialization: Stream lightweight JSON by default, or map specific ML topics to lazy-loaded Avro/Schema Registry serializers.
  • 🦆 Pydantic Duck-Typing: Seamlessly publish strictly-typed Pydantic V2 models straight from your simulation logic.
  • 🔋 Flexible Resources: DynamicResource provides prioritized queuing with graceful capacity shrinking.
  • 📊 System Observability: Built-in lag monitoring to track simulation drift from real-world time.
