- teknopurge 7y agoI thought the same. Good job product marketing.
- fullstop 7y agoFrom appwiz's link in this thread: Amazon Braket – A fully managed service that allows scientists, researchers, and developers to begin experimenting with computers from multiple quantum hardware providers in a single place. Bra-ket notation is commonly used to denote quantum mechanical states, and inspired the name of the service.
- bentcorner 7y agoI was thinking that this name would make hallway conversations tougher (no, it's bracket with the "c"), but I'm guessing (and it's just a guess, I know nothing about this field) that the people actually interested in this service know what braket means.
- ajkjk 7y agoThey certainly would. Also, bra-ket would be pronounced "brocket", rather than "bracket".
