RacQ will be demonstrated in action at next week’s Dell Technologies World expo in Las Vegas.
Irish quantum computing start-up Equal1 has launched the next iteration of its server technology for deployment, integration and use in data centre infrastructure.
The ‘RacQ’ is described as “the next generation” of the company’s ‘Bell-1’ server and is claimed to be “the world’s first deployable rack-mounted silicon-spin quantum computer designed to live within a standard 19-inch data centre rack”.
According to the Dublin-based company, RacQ is designed to utilise hybrid quantum-classical computing, in which classical and quantum technologies work in tandem as single system to optimise efficiency and effect, for “high-impact” application such as investment risk analysis, materials simulation and supply chain optimisation.
