Hi James, Yup, the analytics side of database usage is ripe with possibilities, as the site at your link shows. In my original skepticism, I was referring not to the analytics using the database, but to the database itself. In Cassandra-specific terms, I would suggest that GPUs have more potential

Hi Tony, Somebody will likely prove me wrong on this (and I'd love to see it), but I'm skeptical that there is much intersection between the set of things a GPU is good at and the set of things a database needs to do. As such, I don't expect there'd be much performance gain unless a way to exploit

Cassandra and GPU's...

2015-12-01 Thread Tony Anecito
Hi All, Can Cassandra use GPU's? If not can someone recommend a open source database that runs on GPU's? I am interested in seeing the performance difference of a database that is under 2GB run on a GPU card such as as NVIDA gtx 980. Thanks,-Tony
