1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a quantum file manager executing on at least one processor device, from a requestor, a request to access a quantum file that stores data having a contextual meaning, wherein the quantum file stores the data across a plurality of qubits;
determining, by the quantum file manager, for each respective qubit of the plurality of qubits, a qubit identifier of the respective qubit based on a quantum file registry record that stores metadata corresponding to the quantum file, wherein the stored metadata includes the qubit identifier for each respective qubit of plurality of qubits;
generating a quantum file link structure, using the metadata qubits, that corresponds to the quantum file, the quantum file link structure comprising information that identifies the plurality of qubits including status; and
sending, to the requestor in response to the request, the information that includes the qubit identifier and the status for each respective qubit of the plurality of qubits.
