Does anyone know what kind of GPU support for Spark is mentioned in this announcement? Are they talking about existing XGBoost acceleration, or is it something general-purpose?

This goes beyond the existing Spark+XGBoost GPU acceleration to include ETL, Spark SQL, etc. Coming for Spark 3. Full details here: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/deep-learning-ai/solutions/data...

At first glance, it seems general purpose:

"based on the open source RAPIDS suite of software libraries" […] "will allow developers to take their Spark code and, without modification, run it on GPUs instead of CPUs"
