Reasons to get into Amazon Braket

  • Like some other platforms, Amazon Braket provides quantum circuit designers convenient access to a number of quantum computing devices through one framework. In the past, we had to use different SDKs and methods to access each device.
  • You might have an application that utilizes elastic compute resources, such as EC2, and want to extend that application to quantum computing in the future. Amazon Braket allows you to build extensions to your existing code that uses other Amazon services.
  • Amazon Braket contains some exclusive simulators, such as TN1, SV1, and DM1.
  • The Amazon Braket pay-per-use model can be useful when experimenting with and scaling quantum device usage.

There is a personal reason I have chosen to write this book. I have been teaching quantum computing and have had the opportunity to explain quantum computing concepts to many students. I want to share basic concepts with you that I hope will give you a practical understanding of how to eventually tackle business use cases through quantum computing by the end of this book.
