D-Wave Quantum Inc. (QBTS, Financial) has officially launched its most advanced quantum computing system, Advantage2. This powerful and energy-efficient quantum annealing computer is designed to tackle complex computational problems that traditional computers struggle with. The system features D-Wave's most advanced quantum processor, tailored for optimization, material simulation, and artificial intelligence applications.
CEO Alan Baratz highlighted this launch as a significant milestone for both D-Wave and the quantum computing industry. The Advantage2 processor boasts improved performance over its predecessor, utilizing Zephy topology for enhanced connectivity between qubits, enabling more complex problem modeling. The system's energy scale has increased by 40%, with noise reduced by 75%, offering higher quality solutions for complex computations. Its rapid annealing mechanism supports large-scale coherent annealing computation, minimizing external interference impacts.
Customers can now access the Advantage2 system through D-Wave's Leap real-time quantum cloud service, which operates in over 40 countries, meeting enterprise performance and security needs. Following this announcement, D-Wave Quantum's stock surged over 27%, boosting other quantum computing stocks like Arqit Quantum and SEALSQ, which rose more than 7%.
