Lunch & Learn at CDL 26 - GPUs in Graph DBs: Still Waiting for the Revolution
Join FalkorDB for a private Lunch & Learn at Connected Data London 26.
Roi Lipman, CTO and co-founder of FalkorDB, will be speaking about GPUs in Graph DBs: Still Waiting for the Revolution.
While graphics processors transformed AI and matrix computing overnight, graph databases present an irregular, pointer-heavy workload that resists traditional parallel acceleration.
This talk examines the fundamental hardware and architectural bottlenecks—from memory latency to dynamic frontier traversal—that have kept GPU-native graph stores largely in the academic lab.
We explore what modern interconnects, unified memory, and specialized kernels are finally changing, and what realistic performance gains look like in production today.
Connected Data London returns for its tenth year on 11-12 November 2026 at the Leonardo Royal Hotel London Tower Bridge. It’s two days of knowledge graphs, GraphRAG, AI agents and semantic technology, with speakers from AstraZeneca, Roche, Google and Gartner, plus hands-on masterclasses.
