Quantum Processor Units (QPUs) are not just another plug-and-play component like GPUs or TPUs. Their integration brings new infrastructure requirements and unprecedented security constraints. Today, a few datacenters have already taken the leap: the first QPUs are installed, and some experience has now been acquired.

We are pleased to announce that the next TQCI Conference will be dedicated to sharing the early feedbacks of those first deployments. What technical challenges did they face? What software adaptations were needed? What lessons can future adopters learn?

This conference, organised by CEA, EVIDEN and Teratec, will take place on December 4th from 9 am to 5 pm.

It will be structured around several key sessions:

1. Integration constraints and impacts on computing/datacenters facilities
2. Middleware aspects
3. Users first steps and experience
4. Users’ perspectives and middle term needs
