Quantum hardware and programming languages are expected to be significantly trickier to work with compared to traditional computing which will make adoption challenging.  Cloud access to quantum makes sense because it will lower the barriers to using it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/research.ibm.com\/blog\/quantum-serverless-programming\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/research.ibm.com\/blog\/quantum-serverless-programming\">IBM<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.thundra.io\/introducing-quantum-as-a-service-with-aws-braket\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/blog.thundra.io\/introducing-quantum-as-a-service-with-aws-braket\">Amazon<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/services\/quantum\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/services\/quantum\/\">Microsoft <\/a>are all experimenting with the idea of developing a serverless quantum cloud option. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IBMResearch\/status\/1523997773049344001\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IBMResearch\/status\/1523997773049344001\">An IBM Research tweet <\/a>declared that &#8220;ultimately, the future of quantum computing is serverless, where we can seamlessly orchestrate programs across compute resources.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/jerrymchow\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/jerrymchow\/\">Jerry Chow<\/a>, IBM fellow, <a href=\"https:\/\/venturebeat.com\/technology\/ibm-touts-quantum-serverless-as-it-eyes-path-to-4000-plus-qubits\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/venturebeat.com\/technology\/ibm-touts-quantum-serverless-as-it-eyes-path-to-4000-plus-qubits\/\">told VentureBeat that<\/a> &#8220;Serverless Quantum is part of getting the world ready for quantum-centric supercomputing in the sense that you have computing resources on demand.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/research.ibm.com\/blog\/quantum-serverless-programming\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/research.ibm.com\/blog\/quantum-serverless-programming\">A report from IBM Research<\/a> found that &#8220;integrating quantum into real-world workflows will take advancements across the stack. We need to think holistically about quantum performance, including the scale, quality, and speed of our processors, and we need to ensure that our users can take advantage of quantum resources at scale without having to worry about the intricacies of the hardware \u2014 we call this frictionless development \u2014 which we hope to achieve with a serverless execution model.<\/p>\n<div
