Microsoft wants you to build quantum apps in Azure, the cloud that's both up and down
Microsoft believes that solving the world's most intractable problems – reversing climate change, for instance – will ultimately require combining supercomputers, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing.
According to Microsoft's Krysta Svore – who heads up Redmond's quantum development program – it'll take a rather beefy petaflop-class supercomputer capable of interfacing with the quantum elements at 10–100Tbit/sec just to achieve fault tolerance. And at least in Svore's mind, only the cloud offers the scale necessary to achieve that.
While fault tolerant quantum supercomputers remain a ways off – if they're even possible in the first place – Microsoft contends that developers need to start thinking about how quantum algorithms might be used to accelerate their existing workloads.
