Dr. Kazuaki Ishizaki, a research staff member at IBM Research, and Madhusudanan Kandasamy, a Senior Technical Staff Member at IBM, explain how the Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are becoming popular for achieving high performance of computation intensive workloads. The GPU offers thousands of cores for floating point computation. This is beneficial to machine learning algorithms that are computation intensive and are parallelizable on the Spark platform. While the current execution strategy of Spark is to execute computations for the workload across nodes, only CPUs on each node execute computation..
