A Mistral supercomputer, installed in 2016, at the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ, or Deutsches Klimarechenzentrum) on June 7, 2017 in Hamburg, Germany. The DKRZ provides HPC (high performance computing) and associated services for climate research institutes in Germany. Its high performance computer and storage systems have been specifically selected with respect to climate and Earth system modeling.
The tech giant company also clarified that it is really building a useful and error-corrected quantum computer, which could be released in this decade. Google said that it will develop this new advanced device in its new Santa Barbara-based Quantum AI campus.
