Fujitsu launches cloud services in Thailand

Fujitsu has until now offered data-centre services at more than 100 locations worldwide – including 68 in Japan and in more than 40 other countries – from four main data centres. Two of the data-centre operations in Japan, as well as in primary locations outside Japan such as Britain, Germany, Singapore, Australia and the United States, provide cloud services.
Since establishing a data centre in Thailand in 2008, Fujitsu has been offering customers in this market, mainly affiliates of Japanese companies, a secure computing environment and operations management services.
With a surge in new companies entering the Thai market, there is a strong need for highly reliable platforms that deliver high availability of information and communications technology services. In addition, continued concerns about flooding and other risks have spurred an increasing need for comprehensive countermeasures to maintain ICT continuity.
Previously, Fujitsu and Fujitsu Systems Business (Thailand) had proposed cloud services from Japan or Singapore for customers in Thailand. Now, however, the Fujitsu data centre in Thailand has been equipped with a private cloud platform to offer reliable ICT services. This new service will be known more broadly as the Fujitsu Cloud IaaS Private Cloud service, offered under the Fujitsu Cloud Initiative, Fujitsu’s new systematic approach to cloud products and services announced on May 14.
