Atos and IQM study finds 76% of global HPC data centers to use quantum computing by 2023

Munich (Germany), Paris (France) 19 November 2021

Atos and IQM nowadays announce the findings from the 1st world-wide IDC study on the present-day standing and long term of quantum computing in high general performance computing (HPC). Commissioned by IQM and Atos, the study reveals that 76% of HPC details centers around the world program to use quantum computing by 2023, and that seventy one% program to move to on-premises quantum computing by 2026. IQM is component of Atos Scaler, an accelerator software producing partnerships with the commence-up ecosystem.

1 of the crucial findings from the study is that it is getting progressively complicated for customers to get the optimum general performance out of high-general performance computing although making certain the two security and resilience.

a hundred and ten crucial decision-makers from high-general performance computing (HPC) centers around the world ended up surveyed ^[one]. For the 1st time, the effects present concrete insights into a technology area that will transform Europe and the globe substantially.

Financial investment in quantum computing on the rise

Quantum computing is the range one particular technology in Europe and among the best a few technologies of the best five hundred HPC details centers around the world. 76 % of HPC centers are presently applying quantum computing or program to use them in the subsequent two many years. The expected advantages of the introduction of quantum computer systems are apparent for HPC details centers: the survey displays that these are: tackling new challenges these as source chain logistics or difficulties associated climate transform (45 %) and resolving current challenges quicker (38 %) – although at the exact same time lessening computing fees (forty two %).

Escalating complexity as an option

Cloud is a crucial component of this HPC architecture, mixing conventional aspects with customized-created infrastructure elements. Based mostly on the survey responses, hybrid and cloud deployments are especially essential in the EMEA region. fifty % condition that a hybrid HPC architecture is best precedence, (North The united states forty six % APAC 38 %). But, there is a deficiency of knowledge about how quantum computing will function along with a classical HPC infrastructure. As a result, outsourcing operations and routine maintenance with associates will keep on with the boost in quantum computing.

A market place in changeover

Developing and testing actual-globe use cases is critical to the long term achievements of quantum computing. The 4 most essential use cases for quantum computing are at this time linked to the evaluation of enormous quantities of details and resolving market-particular use cases. The best use cases determined by the HPC centers interviewed are:

Browsing databases (fifty nine %)
Financial investment danger evaluation (45 %)
Molecular modelling (forty one %)
Asset Management (32 %)

Dr. Jan Goetz, CEO and Co-Founder of IQM Quantum Desktops summarizes: “We function with some of the major HPC centers in the globe, and we planned this study to present the quantum market a comprehensive being familiar with of the condition of quantum at HPC centers globally. The strong investments for on-premise quantum computer systems, target on competencies gap and sustainability are quite essential findings from this study, and it will aid IQM, Atos and our ecosystem associates in producing new products and solutions and offerings”

Dr. Stefano Perini, IDC European Quantum Computing Apply Co-guide Spokesperson of IDC, provides: “Quantum computing has all the credentials to transform the way the two scientific and business enterprise difficulties will be tackled. But, there is minimal details on what are the present-day and long term adoption trends of this cutting-edge technology by corporations close to the globe. The study sheds light-weight on how HPC centers are experimenting with quantum computing and how they’re preparing to do it in the long term. By filling this gap, we have been in a position to outline the crucial measures to undertake in order for quantum computing to flourish and attain a significant influence around the subsequent many years.”

Udo Littke, Head of Atos Central Europe, summarizes: “There has never ever been these a thorough study of the alternatives of the quantum technologies for the supercomputing market place. As a result, we performed this evaluation alongside one another with IDC and IQM to understand more about the supercomputing market place in EMEA and the globe. The effects show that quantum computing is more essential in Europe than in the rest of the globe. Europe has a one of a kind ecosystem for quantum computing, which is now displaying strong development. Especially now, it is essential to function with strong associates who have presently executed different jobs and use cases and bring the applicable know-how.”
