> I am currently trying to run genomic analyses pipelines using [Hail|https://hail.is/](library for genomics analyses written in python and Scala). Recently, Apache Spark 3 was released and it supported GPU usage.
> I tried [spark-rapids|https://nvidia.github.io/spark-rapids/] library start an on-premise slurm cluster with gpu nodes. I was able to initialise the cluster. However, when I tried running hail tasks, the executors keep getting killed.
> On querying in Hail forum, I got the response that
> {quote}That’s a GPU code generator for Spark-SQL, and Hail doesn’t use any Spark-SQL interfaces, only the RDD interfaces.
> {quote}
> So, does Spark3 not support GPU usage for RDD interfaces?
