D-Wave Announces General Availability of Advantage2 Quantum Computer, Its Most Advanced and Performant System
PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) ('D-Wave' or the 'Company'), a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services, today announced the general availability of its Advantage2 TM quantum computing system, a powerful and energy-efficient annealing quantum computer capable of solving computationally complex problems beyond the reach of classical computers. Featuring D-Wave's most advanced quantum processor to date, the Advantage2 system is commercial-grade, and built to address real-world use cases in areas such as optimization, materials simulation and artificial intelligence (AI). 'Today marks a significant milestone not just for D-Wave, but for the quantum computing industry as a whole, as we bring to market our sixth-generation quantum computer, a system so powerful that it can solve hard problems outside the reach of one of the world's largest exascale GPU-based classical supercomputers,' said Dr. Alan Baratz, CEO of D-Wave. 'It's an engineering marvel, with substantial technical advancements that highlight D-Wave's progress in scaling quantum technology to meet industry demands for growing computational processing power while maintaining energy efficiency. We're helping customers realize value from quantum computing right now, and the Advantage2 system represents a remarkable achievement in delivering on that mission.' Customers can now access the Advantage2 system via D-Wave's Leap TM real-time quantum cloud service, which is available in more than 40 countries and offers 99.9% availability and uptime, sub-second response times and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance to meet enterprise needs and security requirements. For hyperscalers and supercomputing centers that want to integrate quantum computing into their infrastructure, the Advantage2 system is also available to purchase for on-premises ownership. Advantage2 Quantum Processor Shows Significant Performance Gains over Previous Generation Designed to tackle highly complex computational problems and facilitate quantum and hybrid-quantum applications for production deployment, the Advantage2 system's key benefits include: Increased qubit connectivity: The Advantage2 processor features the Zephyr™ topology with 20-way connectivity, which enables embedding of more complex problems. Higher energy scale and lower noise: The Advantage2 system offers a 40% increase in energy scale and a 75% reduction in noise, which contributes to higher-quality solutions for complex calculations. Greater coherence: A twofold increase in coherence allows the Advantage2 quantum processor to achieve faster time-to-solution. Energy-efficient processing power: D-Wave's quantum computers, including the Advantage2 system, have required the same amount of electricity over six generations—a mere 12.5 kilowatts. Fast anneal: This feature enables coherent quantum annealing at scale, greatly reducing the impact of external disturbances such as thermal fluctuations that can hinder quantum calculations. Hybrid solver integration: Now integrated with the full Advantage2 system, the hybrid solvers in the Leap quantum cloud service—including the powerful nonlinear hybrid solver—support up to two million variables and constraints, allowing businesses to run large-scale, business-critical applications in production. To check out the impressive Advantage2 system benchmarking results, read the whitepaper here. Customer Use Cases Reflect a Diverse Set of Quantum Optimization, Quantum Research and Quantum AI Applications Organizations regularly face the limitations of legacy computing solutions, leading to a growing demand for D-Wave's annealing quantum computing technology to tackle hard problems such as optimizing mobile networks, creating more efficient workforce scheduling, and streamlining automotive manufacturing processes. More than 20.6 million customer problems have been run on the Advantage2 prototypes available in the Leap cloud service since June 2022, with customer use up 134% in the last six months. An Advantage2 prototype was used by Japan Tobacco in a proof-of-concept project that utilized quantum computing and AI in the drug discovery process, and the Jülich Supercomputing Center and Los Alamos National Laboratory have used the prototypes to advance their research. Beginning today, a full-scale generally available Advantage2 system is accessible in the Leap quantum cloud service for all D-Wave customers. In addition, D-Wave continues to expand its fleet of annealing quantum computers hosted around the world. The forthcoming Advantage2 system hosted on-premises at Davidson Technologies is intended to serve as a focal point for national security-focused quantum research. Also, the system currently located at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) at Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ) will be upgraded to an Advantage2 system and is expected to connect with the JUPITER supercomputer, Europe's first and only exascale HPC, to facilitate breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and quantum optimization applications.
