In one aspect, a computerized method for expanding a graphics processing unit (GPU) memory footprint based on a hybrid-memory of a distributed database system (DDBS) includes the step of providing the DDBS. The DDBS is modified to include a plurality of GPUs; providing a local memory of a GPU of the plurality of GPUs. The method includes the step of filling the local memory of the GPU with one or more digests from the DDBS. The method includes the step of running a distributed general-purpose cluster-computing framework instance on the local memory of the GPU. The method includes the step of fetching data from the local memory of the GPU using the distributed general-purpose cluster-computing framework instance. The method includes the step of storing a result of the fetch operation in the DDBS to extend the local memory of the GPU to handle more data than what is fitted into the local memory of the GPU.
