introduced in a previous post, is a GPU-accelerated library that accelerates pandas to deliver significant performance improvements—up to 50x faster—without requiring any changes to your existing code. As part of the NVIDIA RAPIDS ecosystem, acts as a proxy layer that executes operations on the GPU when possible, and falls back to the CPU (via pandas) when necessary.
