1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a quantum computing system comprising a processor device, a communication packet from a service of a plurality of services;
accessing, by the quantum computing system, network configuration data corresponding to the plurality of services, wherein the network configuration data is descriptive of one or more attributes of the service of the plurality of services, wherein each of the one or more attributes is associated with a corresponding threshold value;
determining, by the quantum computing system and based on an attribute of the one or more attributes of the service exceeding the threshold value that corresponds to the attribute, to communicate at least a portion of the communication packet over a quantum network with a superdense protocol in lieu of a default communication protocol;
encoding, by the quantum computing system, the at least the portion according to the superdense protocol using a first qubit entangled with a second qubit accessible by a recipient interface; and
transmitting, by the quantum computing system, the first qubit over the quantum network to the recipient interface.
