Open GPU Data Science
We’ve been on a big journey to make modern end-to-end GPU data techniques the easy path. When Graphistry started, it was impossible to build the analyst experience we envisioned: we were just some crazy people with some election hacking demos and rejected NSF GPU dataframe proposals. We knew we had to make a lot of behind-the-scenes open source infrastructure investments to change the laws of software physics.
Amazingly, years later, the numbers are starting to say the tide is now rising. We’re increasingly able to focus our energy on building analyst experiences to leverage all this.
Thank you, & here’s to everyone building even more awesome data experiences in 2020!
