Accelerated Analytics & Data Science Fit for Purpose: Scaling up & Out

Summary:

OmniSci has demonstrated the massive scaling possible using GPUs and CPUs for computation and visualization. Modern processing capabilities have opened up a whole new era of accelerated analytics at massive scale. While not every analytics problem requires massive scale, all users need tools that are properly sized for problems throughout their enterprise. This presentation will outline how OmniSci can visualize and query billions of rows of data on a single data science workstation or at a larger scale in our enterprise edition for servers on premises or in the cloud.

OmniSci experts will deep dive into our accelerated analytics platform to demonstrate industry specific use cases and demos, show how to deploy Jupyter notebooks with OmniSci, and how OmniSci makes analytics instant, powerful and effortless for everyone.
