OVHcloud has announced two major developments for its quantum ecosystem, including a collaboration with Welinq on future quantum data centres and the addition of Quobly’s quantum technology to its Quantum Platform.
As part of its research and development initiatives, OVHcloud, a European cloud leader and co-founding member of France Quantum, begun a collaboration with Welinq to define the future of data centres.
This collaboration is aimed at interconnecting and orchestrating quantum computers’ networking technologies based on different types of qubits.
Designed to help in the scaling of quantum technologies, Welinq’s solution allows the creation of homogeneous or heterogeneous clusters of quantum computers with classical resources. This research approach supports the flexible allocation of compute workloads to the optimal platforms depending on the use case and the evolution of quantum technologies.
“The future of quantum computing is not only a matter of raw power but also depends on their ability to be networked and orchestrated within computing infrastructures. We are proud to see OVHcloud amongst the first players to deploy this new generation of technologies and contribute with us to emerging future quantum data centres,” said Tom Darras, CEO and co-founder, Welinq.
“For OVHcloud innovation plays a key role. We are delighted to work with Welinq to leap ahead by designing the data centres of tomorrow to the benefit of the European quantum computing ecosystem,” said Miroslaw Klaba, Research and Development Director, OVHcloud.
The OVHcloud Quantum Platform offers an ‘as-a-service’ consumption mode for its QPUs. It helps to make the technology more widely accessible for public and private organisations. With the Pasqal QPU and Belenos from Quandela, the Quantum Platform will offer the quantum technology developed by Quobly.
Based on spin qubits on silicon, Quobly’s technology leverages conventional semiconductor industrial standards, using 300mm FD-SOI wafers. This approach aims to industrialise quantum compute while maintaining compatibility with existing compute infrastructures.
“Our goal is to make quantum computing available for users in their usual compute environments. By joining the OVHcloud Quantum Platform, we are preparing the arrival of new simulation capacities and hybrid compute that will allow researchers and industrial players to explore applications that, up until now, were out of reach for conventional architectures,” said Maud Vinet, CEO and co-founder, Quobly.
Expected for late 2026, the first commercially available Quobly quantum computer, Alloy Pioneer, is designed and developed in France and will be available on OVHcloud’s sovereign cloud as a world first.
