QuiX Quantum Launches Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service

Advancing Quantum Computing with practical near-term solutions via the Cloud. QuiX Quantum, the European leader in photonic quantum computing hardware, is proud to announce the launch of Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service, its first Quantum as a Service (QaaS) platform for quantum and hybrid computing.

Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service represents an important step forward for QuiX Quantum. While it provides immediate access to quantum computing directly to businesses and research institutions, Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service also serves as a stepping stone in the effort of establishing the first hybrid quantum-classical computing platform based on photonics accessible via the Cloud.  

  

"We’re committed to both the near-term impact of quantum computing and the long-term goal of reshaping entire industries."said Dr.-Ing. Stefan Hengesbach, CEO of QuiX Quantum “and in this respect, Bia™Quantum Cloud Computing Service gives organizations a tangible way to leverage quantum technology today. As we continue to develop our universal quantum computer, our Cloud Service allows users to explore the power of quantum computing and solve specific problems right now." 

 

Bia™ is a near-term Quantum Computer designed to solve, natively, specific problems in both fundamental research and quantum simulations, like Boson Sampling, Quantum random walks and Quantum Monte Carlo simulations, respectively. Thanks to the remote integration of classical computing infrastructure with its native quantum hardware, Bia™ can also help in optimization problems and simulations for various industries by implementing variational quantum eingen solver (VQE) algorithms. 

 

George Gesek, CTO and co-founder QMware says "QMware's integration with QuiX Quantum’s photonic processor in Enschede marks a significant advancement in our hybrid quantum platform. This partnership gives our customers direct access to cutting-edge photonic quantum computing. QMware’s SDK basiq™ supports both, current analog algorithms as well as the upcoming gate-based implementations by QuiX Quantum, delivering on our mission to provide scalable, commercially viable quantum computing solutions, just as they emerge."  

 

About Bia™ : 
Bia™ is a near-term photonic quantum computing system that combines state-of-the-art technology and off-the-shelf components, such as a single-photons generation module (from 2 to 4 input single-photons simultaneously), a quantum processing unit (starting with 12 and upgradable to20 channels), a light detection module (up to 20 detectors), and advanced quantum control software. Bia™ is powered by QuiX Quantum award-winning Alquor®Quantum Photonic Processor, known for its ability to operate at room temperature,along with lowest losses and complete programmability.

QuiX Quantum becomes a member of the ARENA2036 research campus
ARENA2036 welcomes the QuiX Quantum team to the ecosystem! The Dutch-German company takes Europe's leading position in the field of photonic quantum computing and enriches the research campus with another key technology. The special thing about the QuiX Quantum technology is that when using photonic quantum computing, only the competitors have to dress warmly. The photonic processors can be operated almost entirely at room temperature, unlike the familiar method with superconducting qubits, and do not require costly and energy-intensive cooling. This technology offers potential for new applications and scaling possibilities from which many of ARENA2036 members will benefit.
