Netherlands gets first quantum computer in Amsterdam data center
Briefly

The Netherlands is set to introduce its first quantum computer at Digital Realty's AMS17 data center within the Amsterdam Science Park, in collaboration with SURF. This initiative, co-funded by the EuroHPC JU program, aims to house a quantum computer with at least 16 physical qubits, enabling advanced calculations for scientific research, including climate change. The placement next to the Snellius supercomputer is designed to facilitate hybrid applications, merging quantum computing with traditional technologies. Challenges include maintaining optimal conditions for qubits, requiring close cooperation between Digital Realty and SURF to ensure successful implementation.
The first quantum computer in the Netherlands is being installed in Digital Realty's AMS17 data center, a collaboration with SURF to boost quantum technology capabilities.
Housing a quantum computer poses unique challenges as qubits need very specific conditions, highlighting the importance of Digital Realty's collaboration with SURF for a successful installation.
