             Summary: Does Apache Spark 3 support GPU usage for Spark RDDs?
                 Key: SPARK-36817
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-36817
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Question
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 3.1.2
            Reporter: Abhishek Shakya


I am currently trying to run genomic analyses pipelines using 
[Hail|https://hail.is/](library for genomics analyses written in python and 
Scala). Recently, Apache Spark 3 was released and it supported GPU usage.

I tried [spark-rapids|https://nvidia.github.io/spark-rapids/] library start an 
on-premise slurm cluster with gpu nodes. I was able to initialise the cluster. 
However, when I tried running hail tasks, the executors keep getting killed.

On querying in Hail forum, I got the response that
{quote}That’s a GPU code generator for Spark-SQL, and Hail doesn’t use any 
Spark-SQL interfaces, only the RDD interfaces.
{quote}
So, does Spark3 not support GPU usage for RDD interfaces?
