contents As gravitational-wave observations expand in scope and detection rate, the data analysis infrastructure must be modernized to accommodate rising computational demands and ensure sustainability. We present a scalable gravitational-wave search pipeline which modernizes the GstLAL pipeline by adapting the core filtering engine to the PyTorch framework, enabling flexible execution on both Central Processing Units (CPUs) and Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). Offline search results on the same 8.8 day stretch of public gravitational-wave data indicate that the GstLAL and the PyTorch adaptation demonstrate comparable search performance, even with float16 precision. Lastly, computational benchmarking results show that the GPU float16 configuration of the PyTorch adaptation executed on an A100 GPU can achieve a speedup factor of up to 169 times compared to GstLAL's performance on a single CPU core.
