#156: Quantum Technology and Storage: Where Do They Meet?


Listen Later

Although quantum technology can be leveraged to do many amazing things, it is not able to provide a general replacement for the storage capabilities we have today with HDDs and SSDs. However, there are a few things where quantum can be leveraged to provide some capabilities that are related to storage and this presentation will cover them. The presentation will start with a quick overview of some of the basic concepts of quantum technology and the reasons why quantum computing may potentially provide significant performance improvements over classical computing for certain applications. It will discuss how quantum computing does implement something similar to computational storage and follow that by explaining how quantum memories can be utilized in certain applications. It will wrap up by explaining how quantum computers work very closely with classical computers to form hybrid classical/quantum processing systems and mention that traditional SSD and HDD storage devices will still be needed on the classical side to support these types of systems.
