# Oracle is putting a Quantinuum quantum computer inside its own data centre

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Oracle and Quantinuum have struck a multi-year partnership to physically install Quantinuum's Helios trapped-ion quantum computer inside a US Oracle Cloud Infrastructure data centre, with Oracle selling access as a managed OCI service. A preview is expected in the coming months, though no financial terms, launch customer, or firm date were disclosed. Helios, launched commercially in November 2025, has 98 physical qubits, 48 demonstrated logical qubits, and 99.921% two-qubit gate fidelity, drawing about 60kW. Co-locating the QPU with Oracle's GPU and HPC fabric is meant to enable hybrid classical-quantum workloads for drug discovery, materials science, financial modelling, and logistics optimisation. Oracle enters a market where AWS, Azure, and IBM have offered quantum cloud access for years, differentiating through physical depth rather than breadth. Quantinuum recently IPO'd at a roughly $14bn valuation despite $30.9m revenue and a $192.6m net loss for 2025; markets reacted with mild declines in both companies' shares on the announcement.

## Questions this post answers

### What are the specs of Quantinuum's Helios quantum computer?

Helios is a trapped-ion quantum computer with 98 physical qubits, 48 demonstrated logical qubits, and an average two-qubit gate fidelity of 99.921%. It draws roughly 60kW of power, far less than the tens of megawatts a leading classical supercomputer consumes, though it addresses a much narrower set of problems. Quantinuum launched it commercially in November 2025.

_Teams weighing quantum-assisted workloads track hardware specs like these on daily.dev before committing infrastructure budget._

### Why is Oracle installing a Quantinuum quantum computer inside its own data centre instead of just offering cloud access to it remotely?

Most quantum cloud offerings work as brokerage, where a job is sent from a hyperscaler console to a machine sitting in the quantum vendor's own facility. Oracle is instead physically placing Quantinuum's Helios machine inside a US Oracle Cloud Infrastructure data centre, putting it on the same fabric as Oracle's GPUs and HPC capacity under shared governance and security controls, which is meant to make hybrid classical-quantum workloads practical rather than just theoretical.

_Engineers deciding how to architect hybrid quantum-classical pipelines follow infrastructure moves like this on daily.dev._

### How does Quantinuum's IPO valuation compare to its actual revenue?

Quantinuum priced its Nasdaq IPO in June at $60 a share, raising $1.68bn and reaching a valuation of roughly $14bn, more than twenty times oversubscribed. That valuation stands against just $30.9m in revenue and a $192.6m net loss for 2025, a gap the company itself frames as representative of how much commercial quantum computing currently exists anywhere.
