Quantum Computing Cloud Provider Rigetti Takes on Big Cloud Amazon, Google, IBM, Microsoft

Who says competitors can’t say good things about each other?  While we are not into quantum computing we do salute Rigetti’s foray into Cloud Computing.  But as some say even with quantum computing their success is not assured but they are striving hard so they could disrupt the big names in the game without a doubt.  Many don’t know this but essentially IBM’s server/cloud infrastructure was actually acquired from Softlayer which had its humble beginnings as a fairly small company as well which evolved from the management of The Planet (a large server provider with a mixed reputation).  But nevertheless this is interesting it can be done.

Even if I was a normal user I’d like to ask them what extra security and privacy features they can add?  Competing on computing power alone to me would not be enough but if they can get enough interest and traction things could still get interesting.

I am excited to see how Rigetti pulls this together and wish him incredible success.

Business and technology have always gone hand in hand for me, and now I've built nearly 20 years of expertise. A few notable achievements: -> Tier III-Designed & deployed multiple mission critical datacenter environments in Canada, US, Hong Kong, Singapore & China. -> Software Engineering: Created a Linux OS from scratch, including a custom kernel to maintain millions of dollars in client infrastructure, deploy and report as needed. Created the “Windows Geeks” and “Password Pros” Windows Password Reset software recommended by Microsoft. -> Business Negotiations: Conducted intensive negotiations with branches of the Peoples Republic of China and the various state-run Telecom operations including China Telecom and China Unicom for access to their trillion dollar backbone infrastructure. We were the first western company to have such network access where other IT companies such as Vodafone and Google failed. -> Cloud Infrastructure Creation: Created the first proprietary “Clustered Cloud Architecture” that rivals competing Google, IBM, Microsoft & Alibaba alternatives. I'd love to chat #IT or #Linux or even #Business, so don't hesitate to connect. Cheers!
