Fujitsu Limited has deployed Juniper Networks' cloud management platform AppFormix in Japan, as a key part of ensuring the operational efficiency of the new region of its widely adopted enterprise cloud platform Cloud Service K5.
The open-source software used previously for the management of Fujitsu's K5 platform did not provide Fujitsu with the automated real-time management and data visualization features it needed.
As Fujitsu prepared for the launch of the new region of K5 which scales several times the previous version, they required a cloud operations management solution that could address these operational requirements, while also bringing significantly increased capabilities.
To combat these ongoing challenges, Juniper was selected to carefully develop and deploy AppFormix for Fujitsu’s K5 platform to address these growing operational needs.
The solution offers simplified cloud operations management and performance optimization capabilities through big data analysis and machine learning.
In addition to significantly reducing operational burden and complexity, Fujitsu is using AppFormix’s GUI dashboard displaying real-time reporting and high level compatability with OpenStack to better plan resource consumption and capacity expansion.
