Amazon’s Braket, a quantum computing service, now available to all – News


Finally, developers & others worldover will have access to quantum computing.

Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com company, announced the general availability of Amazon Braketa fully managed AWS service that provides a development environment to help customers explore and design quantum algorithms.

Customers can use Amazon Braket to “test & troubleshoot” quantum algorithms on simulated quantum computers running on computing resources in AWS to help them verify their implementation, according to a press release. When ready, customers can use Amazon Braket to run their quantum algorithms on their choice of quantum processors based on different technologies, including systems from D-Wave, IonQ, and Rigetti.

Both simulated & quantum hardware jobs are managed through a unified development experience, & as is normal with any AWS service, customers pay only for the compute resources used. To get started with Amazon Braket visit: https://aws.amazon.com/braket

What Is Quantum Computing?

Quantum computing has the potential to solve computational problems that are beyond the reach of classical computers by harnessing the laws of quantum mechanics to build more powerful tools for processing information. It has the potential to lead to new scientific discoveries that can transform energy storage, chemical engineering, drug discovery, financial portfolio optimization, machine learning, & more.
