Abstract

A quantum computing device determines quantum characteristics of a quantum computing system, wherein the quantum characteristics comprise properties of qubits of the quantum computing system. The quantum computing device stores in a time series database information containing the quantum characteristics of the quantum computing system. The quantum computing device categorizes the information in the time series database to generate categorized information, wherein the categorized information is associated with the one or more qubits. The quantum computing device determines, based on the categorized information, that an error occurred in the quantum computing system, and, responsive to determining that the error occurred, automatically performs a corrective action based on the error, wherein the corrective action comprises one or more of shutting down a component of the quantum computing system, migrating a component of the quantum computing system, updating a quantum algorithm, updating a quantum instruction file, or training a quantum algorithm.
