Juniper Networks has signed a new partnership agreement with Fujitsu for the supply of high-performance ethernet switches for Fujitsu Server PRIMERGY, Fujitsu Storage ETERNUS and Fujitsu Integrated System PRIMEFLEX portfolio across the EMEA region.
As a leader in cloud and data center networking, automated operations and AI, Juniper will support Fujitsu and its customers to overcome network challenges around network agility, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Edge Computing.
Juniper Networks' strategy is the right fit to complement Fujitsu's data-driven ambitions: leveraging Juniper's ability to create data-driven networks that deliver intelligence and actionable insight with closed-loop assurance Fujitsu can focus on its own portfolio to deliver high-performance servers, storage and integrated system platforms that offer the optimal experience for its customers.
Fujitsu's solutions will be primarily underpinned by the Juniper Networks QFX Series, specifically the QFX5120, a cost-effective, flexible and compact-yet-powerful product that delivers next-generation capabilities such as network virtualization within large, high-density IP fabrics. The Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches will also be used by Fujitsu within its solution to provide switching for small-scale data center environments.
