Quantum Data Center: Perspectives

Junyu Liu, Liang Jiang

A quantum version of data centers might be significant in the quantum era. In this paper, we introduce Quantum Data Center (QDC), a quantum version of existing classical data centers, with a specific emphasis on combining Quantum Random Access Memory (QRAM) and quantum networks. We argue that QDC will provide significant benefits to customers in terms of efficiency, security, and precision, and will be helpful for quantum computing, communication, and sensing. We investigate potential scientific and business opportunities along this novel research direction through hardware realization and possible specific applications. We show the possible impacts of QDCs in business and science, especially the machine learning and big data industries.
