QCDC | Quantum Computers for Data Centers

Summary
AQT is realizing the first European cloud-accessible quantum computer at internationally competing performance levels. Our two quantum computing setups have been realized within two 19-inch rack cabinets each and are each powered by a single wall-mounted power plug. The hardware is deployed in our data centre and can be installed on-premise at a customer site. The project aims to provide cloud access to AQT's European quantum computers using a novel AQT cloud platform, such that the European quantum ecosystem, in particular our quantum software partners and customers, can thrive without influence or dependence on currently non-EU dominated quantum computing hardware. Our platform infrastructure is meant to be readily extended toward quantum-enabled application services. These future application services will allow us to demonstrate and commercially exploit the advantages of quantum computation in finance, logistics, optimization, materials design, and chemistry.
