In March 2024, IQM Quantum Computers launched IQM Resonance™, a quantum cloud service in collaboration with Reaktor.
IQM, a global leader in building quantum computers, announced on March 19th, 2024, the launch of IQM Resonance™, a cloud service to advance quantum exploration and research.
IQM Resonance will give algorithm developers and scientists seamless and easy access to IQM’s advanced quantum systems to plan, develop, test, and benchmark their quantum algorithms.
With IQM Resonance™, end users will also choose from a list of exploration options, including standard or novel Quantum Processing Unit (QPU) topologies with tunable couplers. IQM recently announced benchmarks for its 20-qubit quantum computer. The cloud service will be provided by quantum computers based in IQM´s quantum data centers in Espoo, Finland, and Munich, Germany.
According to a study by Hyperion Research, 50 percent of quantum computing providers estimate that cloud computing will be the preferred access method for quantum computing by 2025, while cloud service provider-related quantum computing activities will account for almost half of quantum computing revenues. The launch of IQM Resonance aligns with IQM's goal of supporting and providing scientists with tools on their quantum journey.
“We are excited about this service to guide scientists to quantum advantage. To accelerate this goal, we have embarked on a dual-architecture quantum computing journey. First, quantum computers with standard square lattice QPU topologies are scaled in a straightforward engineering approach. Second, we develop quantum computers that leverage long-range high-connectivity QPU topologies and novel compute elements because practical applications will require significantly improved hardware efficiency,” says IQM’s Co-CEO, Mikko Välimäki.
“We’re very excited to collaborate with IQM, which is one of the most interesting companies in the entire Quantum Computing space and the leader of the technology in Europe”, says Pekka Horo, CEO of Reaktor, and continues:
“Quantum computing holds great potential for the future, and the interest in quantum applications continues to rise in every industry.”
