Is it possible to run data science tools like RAPIDS on a JETSON NANO? After some searching, I am still not very clear... also, if it does, will data analysis run faster on it than on a CPU? Any insights will be appreciated. Thanks.
No, sadly, the Jetson Nano doesn't support RAPIDS. The Nano's GPU uses an older architecture GPU, Maxwell, which RAPIDS does not support (Pascal or better). The TX2, Jetson NX, and the Xaviers, which have a compatible GPU architecture, are the only ones that community members have seen success with. I know that there or some community members attempting a port of one or two of the RAPIDS libraries to the Nano, but that is a personal effort by them and YMMV.
