Global head of the company’s AWS business unit, Krishna Mohan, while announcing the launch, said that the lab will enable customers to “jumpstart their quantum computing journey” by testing, incubating and ideating new ideas on Amazon Braket. “TCS Quantum Computing Lab on AWS enables customers to evaluate with agility, the true potential of what quantum technology can realize for their core business,” he added
The company said that while still in its nascent stages, quantum computing has the potential to help solve challenges too difficult for classical computers in a timely manner today, such as enhanced detection of surface anomalies or optimization problems.
As per the company, the new initiative will offer a development environment and virtual research leveraging Amazon Braket which is a quantum computing service from AWS. TCS said that it intends to design industry-leading solutions, build drive hackathons, build domain centric performance benchmarks and leverage the lab.
