AWS Braket

Amazon Braket is AWS's fully managed quantum computing service. It provides a unified API and SDK for exploring, designing, simulating, and running quantum algorithms across a single point of access to multiple third-party QPU technologies (trapped-ion, superconducting, neutral-atom) and AWS-managed cloud simulators. Braket handles device queueing, S3-backed result delivery, IAM, hybrid quantum-classical job orchestration, Braket Direct reservations, and opt-in spending limits, with native PennyLane, Qiskit, and OpenQASM 3 support.

AWS Braket publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Devices API, Tags API, HybridJobs API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Quantum Computing, QPU, Simulator, Hybrid Jobs, and OpenQASM.

The AWS Braket catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.

AWS Braket’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, getting-started guide, pricing, engineering blog, signup flow, and 42 more developer resources.

description: Amazon Braket is AWS's fully managed quantum computing service. It provides a unified API and SDK for exploring,
  designing, simulating, and running quantum algorithms across a single point of access to multiple third-party QPU technologies
  (trapped-ion, superconducting, neutral-atom) and AWS-managed cloud simulators. Braket handles device queueing, S3-backed
  result delivery, IAM, hybrid quantum-classical job orchestration, Braket Direct reservations, and opt-in spending limits,
  with native PennyLane, Qiskit, and OpenQASM 3 support.
