A device may include a processor configured to select a plurality of customers; select a plurality of network assets; and generate a Hamiltonian function representation of optimizing the plurality of network assets with respect to the plurality of customers. The processor may be further configured to determine a global minimum for the Hamiltonian function representation using a quantum annealer; select a distribution of the plurality of network assets based on the determined global minimum of the Hamiltonian function representation; and apply the selected distribution of the plurality of network assets to improve network performance.
