Stop by our booth, search for us on utube or request a tour of our DC.This is an event about cloud leadership and I’m here to share Fujitsu’ perspective on Cloud – a sort of view from the bridge (combining global and NA perspectives) if you will..I’ll cover four things:Fujitsu view on what cloud means --- we believe Cloud is NOT about technology it is about VALUESecondly I’ll share Our customers perspectivesThen the Cloud Provider View & the challenges that we face in responding to this major industry changeCloud is a change in the way IT creates value. Cloud is not a technology refresh. Cloud is a game changer.Major change involves tension and debate. The world in which cloud is the norm will be very different for today’s suppliers and consumers. Fujitsu recognises this shift and is heavily invested – over $2B invested in the last 2 years.We’ll talk more about thatFinally we’ll wrap this up with a peak at Fujitsu Cloud vision
Key messages Today we are at the crossover point of two ‘eras’ of ITA value shift is taking place between lower timeline (mostly in past) and the upper timeline (mostly in future)PC era was about striving for increased efficiency (consolidation, more for less etc.), Cloud era is about business mobility (IT that responds dynamically to business need)Individual workloads move up these timelines over timeAt some point a workload will jump across – timing determined by the characteristics of the workloadInevitably there will be a hybrid set to manageNote the position of private cloud
