⚛️🪙 PennyLane Plugin for Amazon Braket

The Amazon Braket PennyLane plugin offers four Amazon Braket quantum devices to work with PennyLane:

• braket.aws.qubit for running with the Amazon Braket service's quantum devices, both QPUs and simulators
• braket.local.qubit for running the Amazon Braket SDK's local simulator where you can optionally specify the backend ("default", "braket_sv", "braket_dm", etc.)
• braket.aws.ahs for running with the Amazon Braket service's analog Hamiltonian simulation QPUs
• braket.local.ahs for running analog Hamiltonian simulation on Amazon Braket SDK's local simulator

PennyLane is a machine learning library for optimization and automatic differentiation of hybrid quantum-classical computations.

Amazon Braket is a fully managed quantum computing service designed to help speed up scientific research and software development for quantum computing.
