en.Wedoany.com Reported - European cloud service provider OVHcloud announced at the France Quantum 2026 Summit a two-pronged expansion of its Advanced Research and Quantum-as-a-Service (QaaS) platform. The group will collaborate with quantum networking spin-off Welinq to design a decentralized orchestration architecture for next-generation quantum data centers; simultaneously, it has reached an integration agreement with French hardware developer Quobly to bring its upcoming silicon-based spin qubit computer into the company's sovereign public cloud infrastructure, providing enterprise end-users with a unified framework for running hybrid computing workloads.
The R&D collaboration with Welinq aims to address the structural interconnect scaling bottleneck that limits individual isolated quantum processing units (QPUs). Welinq's networking solution utilizes high-performance quantum memories built from laser-cooled neutral atom clouds to interconnect disparate hardware nodes into a unified distributed computing cluster. By providing full algorithmic interoperability between otherwise incompatible qubit modalities, this orchestration architecture will allow OVHcloud data centers to dynamically cluster homogeneous or heterogeneous quantum processors with classical high-performance computing (HPC) nodes, flexibly routing mathematical subroutines to the most suitable physical platform based on workload maturity.
To increase the variety of hardware accessible on the cloud platform, the platform will introduce its first silicon spin processor by adding Quobly's hardware portfolio. Quobly, which previously completed a €115 million Series A funding round, manufactures its architecture in collaboration with STMicroelectronics on industrial-grade 300mm fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) wafers, relying on standard semiconductor manufacturing processes to achieve high qubit density and yield metrics. The company's first commercial quantum computer, Alloy Pioneer, is scheduled for deployment as a cloud-hosted asset on OVHcloud infrastructure by the end of 2026, marking the first public deployment of French silicon spin technology globally, followed by direct physical integration into bare-metal HPC data center racks in 2027.
This dual milestone expands the hardware portfolio of OVHcloud's quantum platform, which already offers on-demand, pay-as-you-go elastic access to Pasqal's neutral atom devices and Quandela's 12-qubit Belenos photonic system. By establishing a single point of access across photonic, neutral atom, and silicon spin processors, the European cloud service provider intentionally shields early enterprise developers from hardware vendor lock-in. The infrastructure layer is equipped with a pre-configured library of 15 open-source quantum simulators, starting at €0.03 per hour, allowing researchers to optimize algorithms in a sovereign environment before executing compiled code on active physical systems.
