The Cray Urika-GD graph discovery appliance, made by supercomputer maker Cray Inc., is a system that finds and analyzes relationships and patterns in the data collected by a supercomputer. Introduced in 2012,[1] it was the supercomputer maker's first product offering to address the growing need of users to produce meaningful graphs based on large amounts of data, often from multiple sources, and to make useful connections among those data.[2]
One example of this system in use would be a health care organization that hopes to find, among its 13 million patient records, information that doctors could use to develop treatment plans.[3] Graphing the records of existing patients by categories such as illness, age, treatment and outcome may provide guidance on treating another patient. Many organizations now have vast stores of information like this—commonly called "big data"—that they can analyze and use to improve their operations, products or services. Big data is also being tapped in professional sports.[4] In 2014 Cray revealed that a Major League Baseball team (whose name has not been revealed) is using a Urika-GD appliance to graph and analyze its own performance statistics, presumably with the goal of improving its performance.[5]
