GPU Accelerated Database Query using cuDF and BlazingSQL
A GPU – Graphics Processing Unit is a specialised processor with dedicated memory that conventionally performs floating point operations (Mathematical) required for rendering graphics. Hence, GPU frees up CPU cycles for other jobs. A GPU is smaller than a CPU but tends to have more logical cores. Which is why – GPU is better equipped to handle this operation as it is able to execute multiple logical operations in parallel.
