Key takeaways
- Enterprise IT buyers rank quantum computing far below other emerging technologies like AI when allocating budget and attention
- Quantum systems are more likely to be absorbed into existing HPC data center operations than to require entirely new infrastructure
- Enterprises face the same full-stack versus best-of-breed vendor decision with quantum that they already navigate with other IT purchases
- Most organizations still fund quantum work out of general R&D or innovation budgets rather than dedicated quantum line items
Summary
Heather West, a research manager at IDC, focusing on quantum computing, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Heather and Yuval talk about where quantum computing is prioritized relative to over enterprise IT opportunities, the potential integration of quantum into the HPC data centers, full-stack vs. best-of-breed vendor selection and much more.
