Amazon offers quantum computing as a service

Google and IBM may compete for quantum superiority, but Amazon as a middleman has announced that it is launching a preview of s Amazon Bracket.

The new project is an attempt by the company to convert quantum computing into a service that you can access online, and was announced about a month after its announcement. Azure Quantum from Microsoft.Amazon Braket

"Amazon Braket is a fully managed AWS service, with security and encryption at every level", he says the company on her blog.

For now, it looks like a very limited service, where Amazon's enterprise customers will be able to experiment with it simulations on a set of existing quantum computers by collaborators D-Wave, IonQ, and Rigetti. (IonQ is working with Microsoft on the Azure Quantum project.)

“This new service is designed to let you have some hands-on experience with qubits and quantum circuits. You can create and test your own circuits in a simulated environment and then run them on a real quantum computer, ”says Amazon.

The company also says it is setting up the "AWS Center for Quantum Computing", a lab near the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), where it will be able to explore quantum computing and more. quantum computers. The director of the company's quantum computing center confirmed to Wired that Amazon is working on quantum hardware.

In theory, quantum computers could calculate much faster than traditional computers , because their bits can exist in multiple quantum states, rather than using on (1) or off (0).

Όμως οι κβαντικοί υπολογιστές είναι σπάνιοι και εξαιρετικά ακριβοί. Έτσι οι εταιρείες Amazon και Microsoft προσπαθούν να τους προσφέρουν μέσα από ένα κοινόχρηστο και διαχειριζόμενο περιβάλλον, όπως το κάνει ήδη η Amazon με την πλατφόρμα υπολογιστών AWS. Αυτή η αόρατη αυτοκρατορία εξυπηρετητών χρησιμεύει σαν σπονδυλική στήλη για πάρα πολλές από τις υπηρεσίες που χρησιμοποιείτε σήμερα.
