1Software Architecture
Qiskit is built on a four-pillar architecture. Terra (Core), Aer (Simulators), Ignis (Noise), and Aqua (Algorithms). For QML, we primarily use Terra and the dedicated Machine Learning module.
2Open Science
By providing access to real hardware, Qiskit has democratized quantum research, allowing anyone with a Python environment to run experiments on state-of-the-art processors.
