HPE's Quantum Computing Engagement: A Hybrid Quantum-Classical Solution for Accelerating Intersecting HPC Workflows

This IDC Perspective provides insights into HPE's quantum computing engagement. HPE provided the context for its quantum computing strategy and product road map. HPE's quantum computing strategy embraces the idea that quantum advantage will be achieved when the integration of quantum accelerators results in cost and performance improvements in addition to a business or scientific benefit."If developed in a timely fashion, HPE's approach to quantum computing provides enterprises opportunity to leverage today's quantum computing technology to gain a quantum advantage," said Heather West, PhD, senior research analyst, Information Systems, Platforms, and Technologies group. "IDC believes that the so-called 'race to a fault-tolerant quantum computer' will not result in one winner but several winners that will provide a unique solution for solving specific types of problems for specific industries. The challenge for HPE will be its ability to distinguish the benefits of its quantum accelerator from others already available in the quantum market."
