ACCESS
Direct QCaaS
Integrate quantum computing directly into your workflow via direct access through your colocated data centre.
ENTERPRISE READY QUANTUM SOLUTIONS
The OQC Direct Access data centre colocation model is a world first. We’re accelerating the pace at which industries can experiment with quantum computing and harness the potential advantages of quantum for real-world applications.
DATA SECURITY
Higher levels of physical and data security
The integration of OQC Toshiko into colocation data centres capitalises on the physical and data security benefits provided by existing infrastructure.
HYBRID COMPUTE
Quantum-classical computational power
By deploying directly into commercial data centres we have put quantum compute capabilities at the heart of classical computing infrastructure.
ON-PREMISE PERKS
On-premise perks for your business
Data centre deployments offer important security and access benefits that you may want from an on-premises computer, but without the need to own a physical quantum computer.
OPTIMISATION CONTROL
Control of optimisation levels
Customers can select the optimisation level from unoptimised through to highest level optimisers that we’ve built-in.
AWARD WINNING
Pioneering quantum integrations
In 2022, we integrated the world’s first quantum computer into a colocation data centre, earning Datacentre Dynamics ‘European Data Centre Project of the Year’ award for our innovative engineering and design.
COLOCATION DATA CENTRES
Seamlessly integrated quantum power
Through our network of world class data centre partners, you can connect directly to OQC’s live quantum systems via seamless direct access, with enhanced security, commercial grade connectivity meaning smoother experiments and lower task and job latency.
You can benefit from seamless access to quantum computing enabling you to trial and experiment by directly connecting to QCaaS within your own digital infrastructure with greater security and ease, powered by OQC.
Direct access to OQC hardware for customers co-located in a Centresquare data centre. Their carrier and cloud-neutral, densely connected global data centre footprint provides resilient diverse MAN, WAN, and cloud connectivity.
UNDERSTANDING DATA CENTRES
What is a data centre and what types of data centre are there?
Data centre
Data centres are centralised facilities, that physically house a range of critical IT equipment and are used by organisations across a variety of industries to manage, process, disseminate and most importantly, securely store large amounts of data and applications.
There are generally two broad categories of data centre: colocation and enterprise. These data centres are predominantly differentiated by their demarcation points in the service, meaning the point at which ownership is changed between the different parts of the service provided.
Colocation data centre
A colocation data centre is a specific type of data centre that leases space to a client company to store their infrastructure, allowing for different computing modalities and services to be colocated. The demarcation here is between the customer and the host, who agree on how their services meet one another. Colocation data centres provide optimum premises to merge quantum computing into their pre-existing infrastructure offering a range of benefits from the ability to form secure ecosystems to exceptional reliability.
Enterprise data centre
An enterprise data centre is a data centre owned and operated by just one organisation meaning the demarcation is entirely internal. The facility may be on or off of the company’s premises but will contain specific physical infrastructure to support the company’s distinct IT needs and requirements. Enterprise data centres provide great control and visibility into operations and equipment for organisations who have unique requirements to their everyday operations.
Quantum data centre
A quantum data centre, is not a data centre in the traditional sense but is a facility solely built to house quantum computers. A quantum data centre has internal control over its demarcations giving it the autonomy to create a sandboxing R&D environment. They can be purpose built or specially designed to meet the specific needs of quantum computers, addressing their unique needs in a way that conventional data centres have not historically been built to accommodate.
