RAPIDS is a suite of open source software libraries from NVIDIA. It is built on top of NVIDIA CUDA primitives but with a user-friendly Python interface, similar to Pandas, Scikit-learn and etc. While Python becomes a widely used programming language in data science and analytics communities, RAPIDS makes it easier to offload analytics workload in Python to GPUs, which may accelerate your data science and analytics toolchains. This webinar provides a brief introduction to RAPIDS and explores the ways of using RAPIDS on Graham cluster based on a Singularity container.
