AWS Deepens Strategic Collaboration with QuEra to Bring Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing to Amazon Braket
AWS and QuEra will bring the first fault-tolerant quantum computers to the cloud, enabling scientifically relevant applications starting in 2028. Since launching Amazon Braket in 2020, AWS has provided customers access to quantum computing hardware across multiple modalities, helping them explore quantum algorithms and prepare for the future of accelerated computing. Today, we are announcing […]
Amazon Braket launches OpenQASM support
Last year, we announced that AWS had joined the OpenQASM Technical Steering Committee to help shape a unified approach to express quantum programs across a variety of different hardware technologies. Today, we are excited to announce that customers can now run OpenQASM programs on all gate-based devices on Amazon Braket. Quantum computing is a nascent […]
Working with PennyLane for variational quantum algorithms and quantum machine learning
The field of quantum computing today resembles the state of machine learning a few decades ago – in many ways. Near-term quantum algorithms for optimization, computational chemistry, and other applications are based on the very same principles that are used to train a neural network. In machine learning, there was no theoretical proof that a […]
