Fujitsu MetaArc Enables Customers to Digitalize with Confidence
SUNNYVALE, California, November 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
With the global introduction today of its Digital Business Platform MetaArc, Fujitsu
outlines its vision for enabling customers to digitalize their business with confidence.
MetaArc provides the enabling platform to allow customers to take advantage of key digital
capabilities such as Big Data, enterprise mobility and the Internet of Things (IoT) on a
global basis.
As enterprises recognize that sooner or later, they must tackle the multiple issues
related to the reality of bimodal IT within their organization, Fujitsu introduces MetaArc
as a digital enablement platform for its customers to thrive in the digital world.
Fujitsu MetaArc encompasses the technologies, tools, services and partnerships needed
to establish a strategic cloud foundation with a choice of cloud deployment methods -
public, private and hybrid. It supports the delivery of cloud-based 'Fast IT', usually
driven by business units and generally used for initiatives that explore and exploit
innovative digital solutions. MetaArc also supports the modernization of what Fujitsu
calls 'Robust IT' systems and enables customers to monetize the value locked in existing
data and systems. It achieves this by connecting digital initiatives with core but often
legacy systems, usually located on-premise or in a hosted data center, creating hybrid IT
landscapes which maximize the value across entire IT infrastructures.
In today's two-speed IT world, the use of cloud is no longer a competitive advantage,
but in fact any organization that is not using cloud technologies is now at a competitive
disadvantage. MetaArc encompasses the solutions and services that enable Fujitsu customers
to embrace cloud adoption across their entire business.
Unrivalled Orchestration for all Cloud PlatformsÂ
Since most customers' cloud landscapes are heterogeneous, MetaArc encompasses not only
Fujitsu's own cloud IaaS and PaaS platforms but also third-party cloud services.
On top of that, Fujitsu's professional and managed services framework is enabled by
globalized, industrialized services to help modernize established, trusted, Robust IT
systems and ensure that they continue to deliver value in a digitalized environment.
Customers are assured of the same high quality of service, encompassing technologies,
cloud solutions, multi-cloud and Hybrid IT management, professional and managed services
and an ecosystem of partners.
Cloud-enabled organizations can more easily tap in to key growth drivers such as data
analytics, while also mobilizing both their applications and their enterprise. Furthermore,
they are more easily able to embrace the new challenges and opportunities created by the
IoT, which adds billions of connected devices, generating huge new amounts of data and
adding complexity to the existing IT landscape.
