^San Antonio, Feb. 04, 2025 (Globe Newswire) – Rackspace Technology (®) (Nasdaq:
Rxt), a leading provider of hybrid, multicloud and ki
Technology solutions today announced that in cooperation with the
Munster Technological University (MTU) QCloud, Ireland’s first quantum cloud
Computing hub on Amazon Web Services (AWS). This
Pioneering initiative aims to promote joint research
and to reduce obstacles when accessing the most modern quantum computer technologies.
The MTU was founded in 2021 and is at six locations in southwestern Ireland
employed. The organization is a leader in national cyber security initiatives
within the European Union. QCloud was due to the commitment of MTU
developed to democratize access to quantum resources and researchers in
All Ireland a safe and scalable connection to real
To enable quantum calculation performance. The MTU worked on this project
Rackspace Technology together, as the company has experience with the experience in
Control of the EOSC future project (European Open Science Cloud) has that
promotes cooperation between commercial service providers and researchers.
? Rackspace worked with the MTU to the necessary funds for the
To secure the introduction of QCloud and thus the research opportunities in the
to improve the entire region, “says DK Sinha, Rackspace Technology, President
Public Cloud .? We are proud of this performance, because QCloud has the MTU
Ireland established as a quantum research center, access to the most modern
Democratized quantum computer resources and the next generation of
Quantum innovations promoted. “
QCloud implementation
After a successful tendering process supported by Rackspace
The MTU started in February 2024 QCloud with funds from the EOSC Future project.
This innovative platform offers researchers central access to
Quantum computer resources and thus facilitates groundbreaking work in
different areas, including the security of autonomous systems. By QCloud
establishes the MTU Ireland as an important player in the quantum research ecosystem,
promotes innovations and democratized access to quantum computer
Resources.
The cooperation between the MTU, Rackspace Technology and AWS led to
a comprehensive quantum research environment that includes the following:
* A centralized platform, the eight universities and 13
Research institutes offers access to quantum computers
* AWS Control Tower landing zone with an account factory for optimized
Project management
* Custom dashboard for cost control for Amazon Braket under
Use of Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM), AWS Cloud
Development Kit (CDK), Amazon Eventbridge and Amazon Cloudwatch
* Real-time cost tracking with automatic budget warnings and
Management systems
? The collaboration with Rackspace was for the establishment of the QCloud
Infrastructure of crucial importance. Your expertise in AWS technologies
was invaluable during this process, “said Dr. Anila Mjeda,
Lecturer for cyber security at the MTU.?QCloud, researchers open doors to
to discover advanced applications and at the same time effective the costs
To manage, which enables real -time monitoring and budget management. With
QCloud can use researchers real quantum computers and themselves from conventional
Adopt simulators that take into account real factors such as
Quantum noise fail. “
Effect and vision of QCloud
Since its foundation, QCloud has connected several institutions and
12 start-ups and 11 large research projects. The platform
marks a significant change in the quantum research landscape of Ireland and
It enables universities to make practical experience with quantum computing too
collect.
? In the classic data processing, information is in binary code
saved, which is represented by one and zeros, “explains Dr. Hazel
Murray, lecturer for cybersecurity and project manager of QCloud at the MTU.
? Quantum computers, on the other hand, use quantum particles where information
For example, coded in the quantum states of electrons or photons
are. This enables exponentially greater flexibility in the
Data representation and opens up the potential, information about the borders
To save and analyze classic systems. “
The university expects its research projects in the coming year
Double, and welcomes new participants .? This is a remarkable one
Time for innovations in the area of quantum computers. We finally see how ideas
become commercial and socially useful products while we
Researched new opportunities, “added Murray.
