Description

IBM Qiskit Functions Catalog: Enhancing Quantum Development


This IDC Market Perspective discusses the Qiskit Functions Catalog, which was announced by IBM on September 16, 2024, and aims to simplify quantum computing development by providing predefined tools that abstract technical complexities. Divided into circuit functions and application functions, the catalog streamlines back-end operations and offers domain-specific tools for various use cases. IBM's dual-tier approach includes an open source version for community engagement and a premium version for enterprises. The catalog adapts to evolving hardware, ensuring compatibility and reducing the need for manual adjustments. By standardizing quantum development and supporting hybrid quantum-classical workflows, the catalog accelerates development cycles, fosters collaboration, and democratizes quantum computing, making it more accessible and practical for enterprises."IBM's Qiskit Functions Catalog revolutionizes quantum computing by simplifying development and bridging quantum-classical workflows. With predefined tools and automated back-end processes, developers can focus on innovation without the technical complexities. This standardization not only accelerates development but also ensures adaptability to evolving hardware, making quantum solutions more accessible and practical for enterprises." — Arnal Dayaratna, research vice president, Software Development at IDC

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
