AWS Braket Devices API

Discover the QPU and simulator devices available on Amazon Braket. Returns device ARN, provider (AQT, IonQ, IQM, QuEra, Rigetti, Amazon), status (ONLINE/OFFLINE/RETIRED), queue depth, paradigm (gate-based or AHS), native gate set, and topology via deviceCapabilities.

  title: AWS Braket Devices API
  description: >
    Discover quantum devices available on Amazon Braket — QPUs from AQT, IonQ,
    IQM, QuEra, and Rigetti, plus AWS-managed on-demand simulators (SV1, DM1, TN1).
    Use GetDevice to retrieve provider capabilities, paradigm, queue state, native
    gate set, and topology for a single ARN; use SearchDevices to enumerate
    devices by status, provider, and type.
