Introduction to Amazon Braket and its use cases

In this recipe, we will be providing a brief introduction to Amazon Braket and learn about the use cases of Amazon Braket.

Recipe Objective - Introduction to Amazon Braket and its use cases?

The Amazon Braket is widely used and is defined as a fully managed Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud service designed to provide quantum computer users with remote access to a single development environment. Amazon Braket service was announced in December of 2019 and is currently available in preview mode. Also, Quantum computing focuses on making calculations based on the behaviour of particles and unlike classical computing, which uses bits that exist in a 1 or 0 state, quantum computing uses qubits that can exist as a 1, 0 or in both the states. Amazon is positioning Braket as the tool to help users familiarize themselves with quantum computing. Amazon Braket will provide users with a development environment in which they can begin to do design, test and run quantum algorithms and once a quantum algorithm is created, a developer can test it on the simulated quantum computer and then further run the algorithm on their choice of quantum hardware. Quantum computing is known to be best suited for theoretical and computation-based computer science. Amazon Braket could be useful for scientists, researchers and developers and currently access to Amazon Braket is currently limited.

Benefits of Amazon Braket

  • The Amazon Braket provides quantum annealing which uses a physical process to find the low energy configuration that encodes the solution of an optimization problem. Amazon Braket provides access to quantum annealing technology based on the superconducting qubits from D-Wave. Amazon Braket provides gate-based ion-trap processors which implement qubits by trapped-ion quantum computers using the electronic states of charged atoms called Ions. The ions are then confined and suspended in free space using electromagnetic fields. So, amazon Braket provides access to ion-trap quantum computers from IonQ. Amazon Braket provides gate-based superconducting processors in which superconducting qubits are built with superconducting electric circuits operating at cryogenic temperature. So, amazon Braket provides access to quantum hardware based on the superconducting qubits from Rigetti.
