Architecture decision
Plan RAM for the active working set, not just the input file. Add a GPU only when the analysis library supports acceleration.

Interactive analysis depends on dataset size, working memory and reproducible environments.
Original data in persistent storage
Notebook environment with pinned dependencies
Memory budget for transforms and intermediate tables
Plan RAM for the active working set, not just the input file. Add a GPU only when the analysis library supports acceleration.
Choose RAM for the active dataset, object storage for originals and a separate environment per project. Add GPU only if the analysis library uses it.
