Kinetica Announces Participation at Gartner Data & Analytics Summit and Strata + Hadoop World

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 22, 2017) - Kinetica today announced it will showcase its distributed, in-memory database accelerated by GPUs that simultaneously ingests, explores and visualizes streaming data at upcoming industry events.

Visit Kinetica at these venues:

Bay Area GPU-Accelerated Computing Meetup: Advanced In-Database Analytics
This group is for those excited about the revolution behind GPU computing and GPU accelerated analytics. Kinetica started this group to connect and educate all who are interested in learning more about advances in GPU enterprise applications that deliver truly real-time actionable analytics. 
When: Tuesday, February 28, 2017; 6:00 - 8:00 PM PST
Where: The Square Bar & Kitchen; 1707 Powell Street, San Francisco, CA. Register here.
What: Kinetica's Mark Brooks, principal solutions engineer, will discuss "Advanced In-database Analytics and GPU-Accelerated UDFs with GPU-accelerated, distributed, in-memory database." GPUs are particularly well suited for the types of vector and matrix operations found in machine learning and deep learning systems. With in-database processing, custom functions will be able to call machine learning/artificial intelligence libraries such as TensorFlow, BIDMach, Caffe, Torch and others to work directly on data within Kinetica. UDFs and the associated orchestration API enable data to be processed with custom code that can draw on the power of distributed GPUs. UDFs have direct access to CUDA APIs, and can take full advantage of the distributed architecture of Kinetica.

Gartner Data & Analytics Summit
