Juniper Networks 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. Fujitsu and its partner ecosystem is delivering all sales, deployment, service and a single point of contact to its customers for select Juniper switches. General availability (GA) of the Juniper-enabled solution started March 26, 2021 in EMEA. 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.
