Handle `zarr` returning `cupy` Arrays

Open ilan-gold opened this issue 8 months ago • 0 comments

Please describe your wishes and possible alternatives to achieve the desired result.

After #1726 people will be able to have zarr return GPU-based arrays. We should ensure that we are ready for this feature change:

  • [ ] Allow SparseDataset to return cupy sparse arrays/matrices
  • [ ] Handle (either error, local setting etc.) return GPU arrays in places that definitely will not support them like DataFrame instances
  • [ ] Investigate AwkwardArray compatibility with this feature
  • [ ] Ensure dask is ready for this change
  • [ ] Add tests for the new zarr settings to allow for this in general
