How does this relate to cuCascade https://github.com/nvidia/cucascade

This is actually going to be pretty sick for us at BlazingSQL. We are freaking frothing at the chance to be able to scale beyond system and gpu memory without having to shove data …

Have you compared performance between your suggested solutions and what can be achieved using hardware vendor platforms? If not then whats kind of pathetic is how quickly you dismi…

When you say SQL format do you mean being able to read the output of a jdbc or odbc driver? If this is the case then mostly just time. You are not the first person to ask about thi…

Well it pretty much always was a part of the eco system it just was not open source. We have been contributors to rapids for a while. And yes, we are betting on Nvidia for sure. Fo…

Thanks Leo! We love having you all as early adopters of our tech!

Nvidia loves and cherishes you (I think I don't work there). They want you to be able to do this on your laptop, your server, your super computer. If it has been a few years I woul…

GPU memory is expensive but a big as #@$% computer is even more expensive. When we show comparisons to things like spark we are doing so use cost basis. So if we say something like…

The collab link below let's you use a gpu for free on Google cloud

Thats a great question. The answer is two-fold. Early on when we first started playing around with General Processing on GPU's we had Nvidia cards to begin with and I started looki…

This is a Distributed SQL engine not a database. We store no data. You store your data in HDFS, S3, posix, NFS etc. We allow you to query directly from these filesystems of the fil…

Blazingsql is built on top of CUDF. We are contributors to rapidsai

No. We hadn't heard of what PartiQL was before you wrote that message. At least I hadn't. I am the CTO of blazingsql

Yes to be more specific it works on cuda 9.2 and 10.0 at the moment like the rest of the rapidsai eco system.

Why not? That would be in line with what these physicians were doing which was benign actions whose intent was to alleviate suffering. It seems that the greater point is that inste…

Ok. Right now we are in tunnel vision mode to get our distributed version out by GTC in mid march. We will benchmark against clickhouse sometime in March. Do you know of any benchm…

I am ignorant of clickhouse. It doesn't really compete in the workloads we are interested in. Sorry you feel this way but we are a small team and need to consider tools that integr…

Coming in the current sprint. We have a PR open agaisnt CUDF that brings string support to many of the CUDF algorithms. We will be using this branch in the meantime in our engine w…

What makes it hard to work in a cloud environment? The on demand nature of it? The fact that you only pay for the time you are using it? The ease of scaling or deployment? It would…

And you think https://tech.marksblogg.com/billion-nyc-taxi-rides-clickhous... for example is something that can be considered fast? It takes the user 55 minutes just to load its da…

PG-Strom is a great way to make postgres faster. Nice. But if the purpose is here to build very fast and responsive system which is interacting with other gpu tools well then snap …
