The QX-34-L backend

The 'quantuminspire.qi' device hosts a QX Emulator instance on the Lisa cluster computer and uses four nodes of the fat_soil_shared partition of Lisa. With 1.5TB of memory each, this allows simulation jobs of up to 34 qubits:

import pennylane as qml
dev = qml.device('quantuminspire.qi', wires=14, backend='QX-34-L')

Note

Choosing an emulator instance depends largely on the number of qubits that need to be simulated. Larger jobs require more resources. More resources means longer wait times to acquire the required resources.

• Waiting time: minutes to hours

• Maximum number of qubits: 34

• Requires an advanced Quantum Inspire account
