Quantum Rings has achieved a breakthrough in simulating large-scale quantum circuits, including those from Google’s quantum supremacy experiments, using standard computing hardware. Their Quantum Rings SDK enables accurate simulation of 53-qubit circuits with just 32GB of memory, achieving a high linear cross-entropy benchmarking (XEB) score of 0.622. This surpasses the fidelity of many current quantum systems, providing a robust tool for researchers and enterprises to explore quantum algorithms today.
The SDK’s accessibility empowers organizations to start developing quantum solutions for applications such as optimization, cryptography, and machine learning. It supports building proprietary quantum intellectual property and validating proofs of concept in-house, bridging the gap until fault-tolerant quantum computers become available. For academic and non-commercial users, the SDK is free and integrates seamlessly with Qiskit, offering broad compatibility.
Strategic partnerships extend the SDK’s reach. Arizona State University has deployed it on the Sol Supercomputer to advance quantum research, while QCentroid offers it via a managed cloud platform for ease of use. Enterprises can license the SDK for commercial applications, accelerating quantum innovation without the need for specialized hardware.
