Fujitsu Selects Apigee to Support Its Cloud-Based Application Platform
May 21 2015 - 9:00AM
Apigee® (Nasdaq:APIC), developer of an intelligent API platform,
today announced that Fujitsu, one of the world's largest IT
services providers, has chosen Apigee Edge to support its
internal IT transformation.
Fujitsu is an information and communications technology company
that offers a wide range of technology products, solutions and
services worldwide. Approximately 162,000 Fujitsu employees
support customers in more than 100 countries.
Apigee is delivering the API platform to support Fujitsu's
initiative in which it is moving its internal IT infrastructure of
640 systems and 13,000 servers into the cloud within the next five
years. This IT transformation is designed to increase efficiency
and lower costs, and to allow Fujitsu to take advantage of new
opportunities in big data and the Internet of Things (IoT). Fujitsu
plans to apply the lessons it is learning from its own
transformation to the products and services it offers
customers.
"The world is rapidly moving to a state in which everything is
digitalized and is connected to everything else via the cloud,"
said Tango Matsumoto, chief technology and information officer at
Fujitsu. "Our company is transforming itself to align with
this historic change, and Apigee is an important part of that
transformation. Not only are they providing a platform for agile
development of new applications, but Apigee also has the
capabilities to support Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and
systems, as well as predictive analytics. Fujitsu relies on
Apigee's strength in exposing data and backend system capabilities
with modern APIs in a secure manner to developers. This will help
enterprises to operate both Systems of Record (SoR) and Systems of
Engagement (SoE) under rapidly changing business environments.
"
The Apigee intelligent API platform helps companies accelerate
digital business. Built from the ground up for the app economy, the
Apigee platform enables companies to share data and services,
rapidly innovate, and continuously adapt to deliver more value to
customers and partners.
Chet Kapoor, CEO of Apigee, said, "Fujitsu is one of the world's
largest IT services providers. We're proud that such a company is
putting its faith in Apigee to help shepherd its digital
transformation, and we look forward to further collaboration and
potential future opportunities with the company."
