Equinix’s partnership with Alice & Bob seems like a strategic move to offer customers in the UAE and globally access to advanced quantum technology via Equinix Metal and Equinix Fabric. It’s great to see this kind of collaboration aimed at enhancing security and leveraging cutting-edge technology for businesses. The quantum strategy services provided by Alice & Bob could potentially open up new opportunities for businesses looking to explore the realm of quantum computing.
Quantum computing is a transformative technology that allows users to complete computationally intensive tasks such as simulation, optimization, machine learning and cryptography. Although still in its early stages, it has the potential to revolutionize several industry processes, change our understanding of the universe, and even help slow down climate change.
Théau Peronnin, CEO of Alice & Bob, commented, “We are proud that our technology is moving out of the laboratory and into the real world. Equinix is the ideal partner to bring the quantum revolution into society. We are looking forward to helping Equinix customers solve some of the world’s most challenging problems.”
Combining Equinix’s rigorous secure operations with Alice & Bob’s quantum expertise creates the ideal environment to design breakthrough innovations. This synergy will allow companies to discover the power of quantum computing with the peace of mind that their research will remain completely confidential.
Kamel Al-Tawil, Managing Director, Equinix MENA, said, “Recognizing our customers’ pursuit of technological advancements, we are committed to standing alongside them at the forefront. By integrating Alice & Bob’s groundbreaking technology into our global interconnection ecosystem, we are poised to deliver innovative solutions to global challenges, fostering access to a hundred billion-dollar market. This collaboration aligns seamlessly with the UAE’s vision for technological leadership, and we eagerly anticipate witnessing the pioneering work it catalyses within our region.”
This opens a world of potential for companies wanting to explore trialing and experimenting with Alice & Bob’s quantum computer within their own digital infrastructure, but with the security and ease Equinix is known for.
