• Full-Stack Innovation to Power the Quantum-Accelerated Future: IonQ Quantum OS, IonQ Hybrid Services, and IonQ Forte Enterprise Availability We are excited to announce several new products and capabilities, as well as enhancements to our existing offerings, that are designed to advance all three pillars of our technology roadmap - performance, scale, and enterprise-grade - with a particular focus on the “enterprise-grade” pillar. • First, we are relaunching our quantum operating system as IonQ Quantum OS. • While IonQ has always built its own control software, we undertook enabling Forte Enterprise to be our first generation of enterprise-grade hardware. • The additional reliability, flexibility, and performance we’ve added make it worthy of a new name and a fresh look at its capabilities. • Second, we are excited to share more details about a collection of new capabilities we are calling the IonQ Hybrid Services suite. • First previewed at last week’s SC24 conference for partners like NVIDIA, Google Cloud, Amazon Braket, and Dell Technologies, the IonQ Hybrid Services suite improves the speed, performance, and usability of hybrid quantum-classical workloads on IonQ systems today, while also laying the groundwork for a roadmap of future enhancements.
Article Summaries:
- IonQ announced a suite of upgrades aimed at strengthening its enterprise‑grade quantum computing offering. The company is relaunching its control software as IonQ Quantum OS, a rewrite designed to support the next‑generation Forte Enterprise system. It also unveiled the IonQ Hybrid Services suite, first previewed at SC24, which improves hybrid quantum‑classical workloads on IonQ hardware and lays groundwork for future enhancements. IonQ plans to bring the first Forte Enterprise machine online by year‑end, marking its first deployment in a new European data centre and its first system built in Seattle and assembled elsewhere. These moves expand IonQ’s stack to deliver higher performance, reliability, and enterprise‑ready capabilities.
