Amazon Braket now offers access to IBEX Q1, a trapped-ion quantum processing unit (QPU) from Alpine Quantum Technologies (AQT), a new quantum hardware provider on Amazon Braket. IBEX Q1 is a 12-qubit system with all-to-all connectivity, enabling any qubit to directly interact with any other qubit without requiring intermediate SWAP gates.
With this launch, customers now have on-demand access to AQT’s trapped-ion technology for building and testing quantum programs, and priority access via Hybrid Jobs for running variational quantum algorithms – all with pay-as-you-go pricing. Customers can also reserve dedicated capacity on this QPU for time-sensitive workloads via Braket Direct with hourly pricing and no upfront commitments.
At launch, IBEX Q1 is available Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 09:00 to 16:00 UTC, providing customers in European time zones convenient access during their work hours. IBEX Q1 is accessible from the Europe (Stockholm) Region.
Researchers at accredited institutions can apply for credits to support experiments on Amazon Braket through the AWS Cloud Credits for Research program. To get started with IBEX Q1, visit the Amazon Braket devices page in the AWS Management Console to explore device specifications and capabilities. You can also explore our example notebooks and read our launch blog post.
