Amazon Braket

aid: amazon-braket
name: Amazon Braket
description: Amazon Braket is a fully managed quantum computing service that helps researchers and developers explore and
  build quantum algorithms, test them on quantum circuit simulators, and run them on different quantum hardware technologies.
  Braket provides access to multiple quantum processors from IonQ, Rigetti, QuEra, Oxford Quantum Circuits, and IQM, as well
  as high-performance quantum circuit simulators. It supports hybrid quantum-classical algorithms through Braket Hybrid Jobs.
