From Web Services to Quantum Computing: The Power of Building on the Cloud

AWS Community Day Sri Lanka, September 17th, 2020

Adding new features for your customers, or creating something new from scratch, it’s much easier when you can focus on what you want to build, and not the nuts & bolts of the underlying infrastructure. With AWS, you can start with foundational services for compute, storage, and databases. From there, it’s up to you whether you want to add analytics, leverage machine learning, or understand what is coming next with quantum computing.

53. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. And Quantum Computing?
54. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. We are used to store data in “bits” that can be 0 or 1… Bit #1 Value It’s 0 ! 0 1
55. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. We are used to store data in “bits” that can be 0 or 1… Bit #1 Bit #2 0 1 Value Bit #3 It’s 0 ! It’s 1 ! It’s 1 again !
56. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. “Qubits” can still have 2 different states… Qubit #1 Qubit #2 | ⟩ | ⟩ Value It’s | ⟩ 0 It’s | ⟩ 1
57. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. “Qubits” can still have 2 different states, but they can be in superposition Qubit #1 Qubit #2 Value Qubit #3 Qubit #4 It’s | ⟩ 0 50% of the time, | ⟩ 1 the other 50% It’s | ⟩ 0 90% of the time, | ⟩ 1 the other 10% | ⟩ | ⟩ It’s | ⟩ 0 It’s | ⟩ 1
58. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Qubits also have a relative “phase”… Qubit #1 Qubit #2 Value Qubit #3 Qubit #4 | ⟩ | ⟩
59. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Qubits also have a relative “phase” that we can use when interacting with more than one qubit… Qubit #1 Qubit #2 Value Qubit #3 Qubit #4 | ⟩ | ⟩
60. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Qubits can be entangled, so that actions performed on one affect the other Qubit #1 Qubit #2 Value Qubit #3 Qubit #4 | ⟩ | ⟩
61. © 2020, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Why are qubits useful? • Qubit express perfect randomness • Some problems can be solved exponentially faster • New algorithms are possible! For example, • Grover’s search algorithm – O( ) instead of O() • Shor’s factoring algorithm – runs in polynomial time • Possible applications are: • Molecular simulation • Optimization • Quantum Machine Learning
