Juniper Networks ensure operational efficiency of Fujitsu's cloud platform

KUALA LUMPUR, May 22 (Bernama) -- Fujitsu Ltd has deployed Juniper Networks' cloud management platform, AppFormix to ensure operational efficiency of Fujitsu's cloud platform, Cloud Service K5 in Japan.

"We look forward to the continued advancement of AppFormix solutions in support of Fujitsu's operational needs going forward, especially for the potential global deployment of K5 as a continuation of our long-term, firm partnership," said vice president of Engineering at Juniper Networks, Sumeet Singh.

Fujitsu's K5 is the world's largest open-source based platform and has strong global adoption by organisations to drive digital business transformation, across the public, private and hybrid cloud, a statement said.

Juniper's AppFormix was selected to deploy Fujitsu's K5 platform for growing operational needs, offering simplified cloud operations management and performance optimisation capabilities through big data analysis and machine learning.

AppFormix also significantly reduces operational burden and complexity with the unique user-friendly GUI dashboard displaying real-time reporting and high level compatibility with OpenStack, allowing Fujitsu to better plan resource consumption and capacity expansion of the K5 platform in the future.

Previously, the open-source software used for the management of the K5 platform did not provide Fujitsu with the automated real-time management and data visualisation features it needed which resulted in manual processes and increased OPEX.
