Drive AI workloads with GPU-accelerated data processing, vector indexing and search

2025-04-10
session
Felix Cheung (NVIDIA) , Corey Nolet (NVIDIA)

NVIDIA GPUs accelerate batch ETL workloads at significant cost savings and performance. In this session, we will delve into optimizing Apache Spark on GCP Dataproc using the G2 accelerator-optimized series with L4 GPUs via RAPIDS Accelerator For Apache Spark, showcasing up to 14x speedups and 80% cost reductions for Spark applications. We will demonstrate this acceleration through a reference AI architecture on financial transaction fraud detection, and go through performance measurements.

Unstructured data makes up the majority of all new data; a trend that's been growing exponentially since 2018. At these volumes, vector embeddings require indexes to be trained so that nearest neighbors can be efficiently approximated, avoiding the need for exhaustive lookups. However, training these indexes puts intense demand on vector databases to maintain a high ingest throughput. In this session, we will explain how the NVIDIA cuVS library is turbo charging vector database ingest with GPUs, providing speedups from 5-20x and improving data readiness.
