execnet: Distributed Python Deployment and Communication

execnet is a Python library that provides carefully tested means to ad-hoc interact with Python interpreters across different versions, platforms, and network barriers. It offers a minimal and fast API for distributing tasks to local or remote processes, writing hybrid multi-process applications, and administering multiple hosts. The project is currently in maintenance-only mode, with a focus on bug fixes, and is not recommended for new projects. The current stable version is 2.1.2, with releases driven by bug fixes and Python version compatibility updates.
