Joined forces! Amazon Quantum Cloud Platform Announces Support for IBM Quantum Software Development Tools

On June 17, AWS quantum computing cloud service Amazon Braket announced support for IBM's quantum software development kit Qiskit, launching a new solution Qiskit-Braket-Provider, users can now use existing algorithms written in Qiskit, just a few lines code, you can run them directly on Amazon Braket.

The Qiskit-Braket-Provider currently supports access to superconducting quantum processing units (QPUs) from Rigetti and Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC), IonQ's ion trap QPUs, and Amazon Braket's on-demand simulators: SV1, TN1 and DM1.

Quantum computing hardware currently available at Braket

The solution was primarily developed by open source contributor David Morcuende in collaboration with the Amazon Braket team as part of the Qiskit Advocate Mentorship program.

AWS said: “We want to empower everyone in the quantum computing community to contribute and influence the future of the field. Contributors can define examples of quantum algorithms or software capabilities they would like to see, and which tools or plugins will enable them to Quantum applications are easier to develop - even to invent new quantum algorithms."

AWS provides a tutorial on how to run Qiskit code on Braket quantum devices:
