Challenge

Today, you run your business in a world in which your organization’s ability to communicate, share information, process data, and act on this informa-tion strains against an IT infrastructure that was designed for a more static, slower-paced environment. As your organization endeavors to meet the challenges presented by new competi-tive pressures, innovative productivity and business applications, exponential data growth, fixed resources and bud-gets, and rapid and often unexpected changes in its business environment, you need a dynamic, scalable infra-structure to help you meet these challenges quickly, efficiently, and cost effectively.

NetApp, Fujitsu, and Fujitsu Technology Solutions (FTS) deliver flexible, adaptable solutions that increase your ability to quickly respond to business changes, give you better resource utilization for efficient and responsive provisioning, and provide operational efficiencies that will help you reduce costs and maximize your budget.

Increased flexibility for faster responsesThe first step in creating an IT infra-structure that can meet the fast-changing business needs of an organization is to build in flexibility in that structure. That necessitates designing and deploying an infrastructure that is easily recon-figured for growth or shrinkage of the environment as well as the introduction of new products and applications or the removal of existing products and applications.

Better resource utilization and managementThe next step in deploying a flexible, dynamic IT infrastructure is to imple-ment solutions that let you easily and quickly provision IT resources for the environment. With Fujitsu solutions, such as the Dynamic Infrastructures for SAP®, you can easily scale your server and storage assets to meet peaks and valleys in application loads. These products and tools should make it easier for data center staff to grow or shrink resources on a timely basis by streamlining the processes involved.

As customers’ buying patterns have shifted towards vendors with a more holistic and collaborative approach to data center needs, Fujitsu and NetApp have jointly created a set of solutions that provide midsized and enterprise customers with easy-to-use and tightly integrated data management solutions:

Storage efficiency Optimize existing assets through virtu-alization and deduplication with Fujitsu and NetApp. Using NetApp® V-Series open storage, you can extend the full value of NetApp solutions to disk arraysfrommajorvendors.Combinedwith Fujitsu’s ETERNUS® storage line, you can take advantage of thin replication, RAID-DP®, Snapshot®,

In addition to improving allocation of existing resources, these joint appli-cations will let you better align your capacity planning with both expected and unexpected business changes. By deploying storage and server virtualization software that lets you service multiple applications from shared resources you will be able to avoid overbuying computing assets to meet peak loads or letting valuable assets be underutilized. By combin-ing virtualization solutions from Fujitsu, FTS, and NetApp for both servers and storage, you can reduce the amount of resources you need for any application and still maintain critical service-level agreements.

Operational efficiencies result in a strong bottom line Although serving the IT needs of your business is your primary function, every organization has to function within an annual budget. For your organization to be successful you need to maximize and leverage your existing infrastruc-ture investments and maximize your capital investment dollars by getting the most value for every dollar spent to improve your asset ROI.

deduplication,FlexClone® and thin provisioning features while maintaining your current multiprotocol, multivendor storage investments.

SaP Fujitsu and NetApp continue to deliver preintegrated and pretested end-to-end solutions to provide a dynamic techno-logical platform for SAP environments:

• FlexFrame for SAP, the first SAP infrastructure solution on NetApp that dynamically and automatically assigns Fujitsu server and NetApp storage resources based on current workloads.

• Fujitsu’s SAP BW Accelerator Infrastructure, for quick and easy queries using Business Warehouse systems and Business Objects Explorer. Its architecture consists of Fujitsu PRIMERGY® servers and NetApp unified storage systems to boost performance in analyzing terabytes of data.

“Our customers want to be able to use their current IT resources in a more flexible and adaptable way in order to capitalize on the investments that they have already made. Using our joint expertise and experience, NetApp and Fujitsu can help customers decide which IT infrastructure complexity and delivery model is best for them.”Dr. Joseph Reger ChiefTechnologyOfficer,Fujitsu

Integrated Storage ManagementManage and provision NetApp uni-fied storage systems and the Fujitsu ETERNUS storage line from a single management console. Using the FujitsuETERNUSSFStorageCruiser,management software for ETERNUS disk storage environments, helps customers simplify how they manage their Fujitsu and NetApp storage environments.

Managed ServicesReduce implementation risks by utilizing our joint portfolio of advanced services including consulting, pro-fessional services, managed storage services and maintenance services delivered by NetApp and Fujitsu certified storage professionals and global service delivery capabilities for dynamic infrastructures.

ured, and shared IT architecture helps reduce the time and resources needed to deploy mission critical projects.

VDIFujitsu and NetApp joined forces with VMware and other strategic partners in creating an architectural design for a 50,000-seat VMware View architec-ture. This solution provides methods of deploying a scalable and easily expandable environment from 5,000 to 50,000 seats in an efficient manner.

System Management Manage and provision a flexible IT infrastructure by using a common management framework and prein-tegrated software management tools from Fujitsu and NetApp. The Fujitsu ServerView Resource Orchestrator (ROR) system management software supports NetApp unified storage sys-tems as their first non-Fujitsu storage subsystem. This allows IT organiza-tions using Fujitsu and NetApp to better analyze, control, and automate their shared IT infrastructure.

Data Protection Deploy with confidence heterogeneous backup solutions with deduplication technology targeted for midsize and small enterprises. NetApp is extending its data protection portfolio by resell-ingtheFujitsuETERNUSCS800S2product.

FujitsuETERNUSCS800S2isaturnkey data protection appliance that provides a simple and affordable solution for midrange customers who want to reduce costs by implement-ing disk-to-disk backup strategies. The advanced deduplication technology embedded into this appliance reduces typical capacity requirements for disk-to-disk backup by up to 90%. In addition, because this product repli-cates backup data between sites using global deduplication, you can reduce typical network bandwidth needs by a factorof20ormore.
