Fujitsu America says it's going into both the private and public cloud business early next quarter, helping organizations build their own clouds and hosting ISV application as SaaS services on its own upgraded data center in Silicon Valley.
Doubling the floor space, reducing carbon emissions by 21%, increasing available power and cooling capabilities to expand the data center's effective capacity by over 800% is supposed to cost many million of dollars.
The company says users can migrate existing multi-platform and multi-vendor mission-critical systems to enterprise clouds.
Fujitsu will support the cloud application interface (API) specification that it recently submitted to the Open Cloud Standards Incubator of the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) to promote interoperability.
Fujitsu's widgetry will include system construction, operations, maintenance services and full-featured vertical applications.
To comply with vertical industry standards and regulations, retail transactional applications will be hosted in a PCI-compliant data center and healthcare applications in a HIPAA-compliant environment.
Fujitsu has previously announced enterprise cloud services in Japan and EMEA.
