Quantum Computing @ Deutsche Bahn and How It Started
summary
2017 puts quantum on the radar after media hype; evaluation uses a 10‑year horizon and business‑value metrics tied to revenue, disruption and regulation. 2019 starts first steps: market scan, four small pilots across compute technologies, a small internal team and 2019 first pilot projects. Quantum‑inspired methods and tested D‑Wave quantum menila run real use cases, but production logistics wins need end‑to‑end value chains and integration. Expect useful applications for complex Deutsche Bahn problems in 8–10+ year horizon, and a need for qualified experts.
