These computational graph frameworks can take advantage of the massively parallel multiplication and addition operations that GPUs are built for.

A cloud service is a great option if you don’t want to invest the time and money to build your own server. But it’s possible to build a server with a GPU that’s twice as fast as a comparable Amazon Web Services (AWS) server for about the cost of a month on a comparable AWS instance.
