The natural way to start with CUDA

The natural way to start with CUDA if you plan to be self taught is:

1. CUDA by Example: An Introduction to General-Purpose GPU Programming by Jason Sanders and Edward Kandrot Nice introduction. It is more like playing with your GPU and admire its capabilities.

2. Programming Massively Parallel Processors, Second Edition: A Hands-on Approach by David B. Kirk and Wen-mei W. Hwu It explains a lot of things in GPU Programming. You simply can't go without it.

Introduction

This gist started with a collection of resources I was maintaining on stream data processing — also known as distributed logs, data pipelines, event sourcing, CQRS, and other names.

Over time the set of resources grew quite large and I received some interest in a more guided, opinionated path for learning about stream data processing. So I added the reading list.

Please send me feedback!
