Title: Accelerating Real-Time Analytics with Cosmos DB and GPU-Enhanced Serverless Apache Spark
Abstract: Accelerating Real-Time Analytics with Cosmos DB and GPU-Enhanced Serverless Apache Spark
This session will show you how to create an end-to-end pipeline that leverages Azure Cosmos DB, Apache Spark, and serverless GPU acceleration to redefine real-time analytics. Learn how to ingest streaming data into Azure Cosmos DB and process it at scale using Apache Spark deployed on Azure Container Apps with GPU support. The focus of the presentation is a demo that highlights how GPU acceleration can dramatically reduce processing times and enable sophisticated machine learning workflows.
