Very good news. Dataproc now lets you use NVIDIA GPUs to accelerate XGBoost in a Spark pipeline. This combination can speed up machine learning development and training up to 44x and reduce costs 14x when using XGBoost. With this kind of GPU acceleration for XGBoost, you can get better performance, speed, accuracy, and reduced TCO, plus an improved experience when deploying and training models. Spinning up elastic Spark and XGBoost clusters in Dataproc takes about 90 seconds. https://gweb-cloudblog-publish.appspot.com/products/data-analytics/ml-with-xgboost-gets-faster-with-dataproc-on-gpus/amp/

The seemingly negative pandemic effects and resource/product shortages are encouraging and allowing organizations to innovate and change.The news of cash-rich organizations getting ready for the post-Covid growth economy is a sign of more than capital spending plans. Cash provides a cushion for risk-taking and a tool for growth.
How Does Bitcoin Mining Work?
Bitcoin mining is the process of adding new transactions to the Bitcoin blockchain. It’s a tough job. People who choose to mine Bitcoin use a process called proof of work, deploying computers in a race to solve mathematical puzzles that verify transactions.To entice miners to keep racing to solve the puzzles and support the overall system, the Bitcoin code rewards miners with new Bitcoins. “This is how new coins are created” and new transactions are added to the blockchain, says Okoro.
