NTT Communications, Virtustream and Dell EMC Partner to Expand Cloud Market in Japan

Published On: February 20, 2017Categories: Buzz, Uncategorized

NTT Communications has announced the launch of a strategic partnership with Virtustream, a Bethesda, MD-based cloud company and Dell EMC to develop and deliver multi-tenant cloud platforms in Japan.

Through this partnership, NTT will launch multi-tenant cloud platforms for mission-critical systems within large enterprises in Japan this spring.

Mission-critical applications for large enterprises in Japan today are typically run in on-premises or private-cloud environments to ensure stability and high processing capabilities at all times. However, with enterprises demanding faster system scalability and more flexible pricing for greater competitiveness, there is growing interest in shifting mission-critical applications to a multi-tenant cloud platform’s solutions.

This joint initiative will combine NTT Com’s data centers, network and existing cloud platforms; Virtustream’s cloud platform for mission-critical applications; and storage and Converged Infrastructure platform by Dell EMC.

The newly developed, multi-tenant cloud platform will offer MicroVM resource management and Virtustream’s technology for pay-as-you-go billing. Customers will have the capability to build hybrid environments that integrate this new multi-tenant cloud, dedicated cloud and on-premises systems into one data center.

The partners will also explore opportunities to launch their offering in global markets.
