A new version of SD Connect and SD Desktop will be available from Monday, September 28. The major upgrade will introduce significant improvements, but also includes changes that are not compatible with the current version of the service. Click here to review the available support materials.

Warning!

Puhti and Mahti computing services have been decommissioned and no new jobs are accepted or executed on its compute nodes. Puhti and Mahti login nodes and storage services are planned to remain available until 15 October 2026. Clean up unnecessary files and move any data you need to keep by 31 August 2026. See the Roihu data migration guide for instructions on transferring your data to Roihu.

Overview

Quantum computers differ from their classical counterparts when it comes to the basic computational operators. Before QPUs can be utilized, they require tailor-made programs and algorithms. The Finnish Quantum-Computing Infrastructure FiQCI provides access to quantum computing resources through CSC's service portals.

Quantum Computers

FiQCI currently provides access to quantum computers reachable through the supercomputing environment.

See the Devices section for more details and hardware specifications of each machine.

Simulators

Qiskit

The LUMI supercomputer now supports the simulation of quantum algorithms with up to 44 qubits using Qiskit, IBM’s open-source quantum computing framework. This capability enables researchers to explore and test large-scale quantum algorithms in preparation for quantum advantage.
