Introduction to GPUs for Data Analytics

Moore’s law has finally run out of steam for CPUs. The number of x86 cores that can be placed cost-effectively on a single chip has reached a practical limit, making higher densities prohibitively expensive for most applications. Fortunately, for big data analytics, machine learning, and database applications, a more capable and cost-effective alternative for scaling compute performance is already available: the graphics processing unit, or GPU. In this report, executives at Kinetica and Sierra Communications explain how incorporating GPUs is ideal for keeping pace with the relentless growth in streaming, complex, and large data confronting organizations today. Technology professionals, business analysts, and data scientists will learn how their organizations can begin implementing GPU-accelerated solutions either on premise or in the cloud. This report explores: How GPUs supplement CPUs to enable continued price/performance gains The many database and data analytics applications that can benefit from GPU acceleration Why GPU databases with user-defined functions (UDFs) can simplify and unify the machine learning/deep learning pipeline How GPU-accelerated databases can process streaming data from the Internet of Things and other sources in real time The performance advantage of GPU databases in demanding geospatial analytics applications How cognitive computing—the most compute-intensive application currently imaginable—is now within reach, using GPUs

Transforming Industry Through Data Analytics

The information technology revolutions over the past six decades have been astonishing, from mainframes to personal computers to smart and connected economies. But those changes pale in comparison to what’s about to happen. By 2020, seven billion people and roughly 50 billion devices will be connected to the internet, leaving the world awash in data. How do we make sense of it all? In this insightful book, Raghunath Nambiar from Cisco examines the role of analytics in enabling digital transformation within the enterprise, including challenges associated with the explosion of data. It embraces the need for analytics at the edge of the network with a local context and analytics at the data center core with a global context. He also explores the differences between the four types of analytics—descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive—including the driving factors behind the need for each of them, as well as the analytical systems required to process them to produce actionable insight. Raghu then takes a deep dive into how the explosion in internet connections affects key industries, and how applied analytics will impact our future. Learn how analytics can make a difference in: Smart cities to manage energy, the environment, traffic, parking, structures, waste, safety, and crowds Smart energy to enable sustainable and efficient offerings that provide substantial benefits for both providers and customers Healthcare to address the aging population, growing shortage of physicians, and rising costs through connected health Manufacturing for producing higher quality products, creating new lines of business, reducing time-to-market, and increasing revenue growth Transportation to address the increasing demand through collaborative consumption, connected cars, and the potential for autonomous vehicles
