Quantum computing providers on Azure Quantum

Azure Quantum offers various quantum solutions, such as different quantum hardware devices and quantum simulators that you can use to run your quantum computing programs. This topic has the latest capabilities available through Azure Quantum.

Provider	Description
	IonQ's trapped-ion gate-based quantum computers are universal and dynamically reconfigurable in software to use up to 11 qubits. All qubits are fully connected, meaning you can run a two-qubit gate between any pair. The implementation of quantum gate operations is done by manipulating Ytterbium ions with laser pulses. IonQ provides a GPU-accelerated quantum simulator supporting up to 29 qubits, using the same set of gates IonQ provides on its quantum hardware. For more information, see the IonQ provider page.
	Quantinuum's trapped-ion quantum computers have high-fidelity, fully-connected qubits, and qubit reuse. Quantum operations are laser-based gates with low error rates, and have the ability to perform mid-circuit measurements. The System Model H1 generation of hardware, Powered by Honeywell, uses a Quantum Charge-Coupled Device (QCCD) architecture. Quantinuum provides an emulation tool, the System Model H1 Emulator, which contains detailed physical models and noise models of the actual quantum hardware. For more information, see the Quantinuum provider page.

Quantum hardware devices are still an emerging technology. These devices have some limitations and requirements for quantum programs that run on them. For more information, see the target profile types in Azure Quantum.
