Graph Database Analytics Acceleration

Graph databases are great for connecting siloed data to gain valuable insights. If you have a graph database, you know the best way to get your answers fast, is through acceleration.

The Alveo U55C card is able to accelerate query times and predictions for recommendation engines from minutes down to milliseconds. The U55C’s superior computational power and memory bandwidth enable graph query speeds up to 96x faster compared to CPU-based clusters, while increasing the quality of scores by up to 35%.

This improvement results in greater confidence, dramatically lowering false positives to low single digits.

TigerGraph, the world’s most scalable graph database, turned to AMD to accelerate their software-based graph analytics solution.

Utilizing multiple Alveo U55C cards, TigerGraph tapped into AMD massive clustering ability to accelerate the two most prolific algorithms that drive graph-based recommendation engines Cosine Similarity and Louvain Modularity.

Product Recommendation

Real-time Personalized Patient Care. 96x Faster on AMD.

In this test, the Alveo U55C card performed 96x faster than a CPU running the TigerGraph Cosine Similarity recommendation engine across millions of patient records to deliver results in milliseconds.

Fraud Detection

Real-Time Fraud Detection. 45X Faster on AMD.

With TigerGraph’s Graph analytics database running on the Alveo U55C card, the Louvain clustering algorithm detected fraudulent attempts across hundreds of bank accounts 45x faster.

Real-Time Signal Processing Acceleration

The Alveo U55C card is ideally suited for processing terabytes of sensor data in real time, via distributed processing across hundreds of Alveo accelerator cards.

Up to 50x Lower in Price, Area & Power Efficiency vs GPU Benchmark

The explosion of sensors at the Edge has accelerated the need to process data in real-time.

Commodity GPUs running streaming sensor data clusters simply can’t keep up with the price, performance and power that Alveo U55C cards deliver.
