Data Processing

Data engines ready for AI.

NVIDIA cuDF | NVIDIA cuVS

Overview

New Data Demands

To transform your enterprise, AI agents need continuous access to your data, putting strain on data infrastructure not designed for agentic reasoning loops.

By accelerating unstructured and structured data processing with NVIDIA cuDF and NVIDIA cuVS, enterprises can meet the new volume and velocity of data demands from AI while leveraging the data infrastructure they’ve invested in for years.

The world's most popular data engines run on the accelerated computing platform—helping agents access structured data living in tables and unstructured data living as PDFs, emails, images, and videos across the enterprise.

Accelerating Data Processing for AI Agents

Watch Jensen Huang describe how the NVIDIA Vera CPU delivers higher performance and efficiency to run 3x faster SQL analytics with Starburst and increase the reliability of real-time data streaming with Redpanda by up to 6x.

Products

NVIDIA CUDA-X for Data Processing

cuDF and cuVS are CUDA-X™ toolkits, built on highly optimized CUDA™ primitives, to accelerate the data processing ecosystem.

cuDF for Structured Data

  • Accelerates analytics engines on NVIDIA GPUs
  • Includes drop-in accelerators for Apache Spark, Presto, Polars, and DuckDB 
  • Executes analytical queries in minutes from hours

cuVS for Unstructured Data

  • GPU-accelerated vector search and index building for RAG and AI pipelines
  • Integrates with OpenSearch, Elastic, Milvus, and more
  • Reduces vector index build times from hours to minutes

Adopters

Data Processing Ecosystem

From analytical SQL queries to vector search, organizations are adopting NVIDIA's accelerated computing platform into their existing data platforms to accelerate AI-ready pipelines.

Data Processing on NVIDIA Vera

For enterprises running agentic AI workloads at scale, AI agents dramatically increase concurrent, continuous small-scale querying of structured enterprise data. NVIDIA Vera has 1.2 TB/s of memory bandwidth and high-speed on-chip fabric that offers the per-core performance, high throughput, and predictability under load that supports the increased volume and velocity of queries. For the Starburst analytics engine, NVIDIA Vera processed queries 3x faster compared to x86, reducing query execution from minutes to seconds, while the Redpanda streaming engine saw a 6x improvement in p99 versus x86, enhancing the reliability of the data engine.
