Fujitsu is a Japanese multinational IT company providing hardware, software, and extensive services globally. Aiming to build trust through innovation for a sustainable world, Fujitsu is known for its enterprise solutions and cutting-edge tech like quantum computing and AI research, making it a major player in the IT services market.
The company set out to reimagine the next generation of its highly successful Desktop-as-a-Service (FJDaaS) offering in Japan introducing a next-generation solution built on a sovereign cloud model. Core to this vision was maintaining security standards and meeting complex compliance requirements, particularly for government and enterprise customers. Customers can securely access their virtual desktops from their own environments, with additional service options including customizable desktop configurations and an AI-powered knowledge utilization tool (AI Assistant Hub) to further enhance productivity.
Fujitsu and Oracle have been collaborating in the deployment of cloud services and implemented a sovereign Oracle Alloy platform, where Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Secure Desktops was made available for testing. Fujitsu has now selected OCI Secure Desktops as the foundation for its next generation DaaS solution, allowing Fujitsu to offer customers the highest levels of data protection in a cloud environment, operated entirely from domestic data centers within Japan. This approach helps assure customers that sensitive data would remain within local jurisdiction, enabling them to meet stringent compliance and regulatory requirements for government and enterprise organizations.
Oracle Alloy is central to this transformation, combining the full suite of OCI services including advanced security and generative AI capabilities with sovereign operational control. This unique model allows Fujitsu to innovate rapidly and independently, while offering customers robust security and local operational transparency.
Beyond the security dimension, OCI Secure Desktops service provides compelling advantages around cost transparency and low variability in pricing, empowering clients to budget confidently and avoid surprise costs that can accompany public cloud scaling. Ultimately, OCI Secure Desktops allowed Fujitsu to better address its customers’ primary concerns around cost control, data residency.
“OCI Secure Desktops empowers Fujitsu to deliver leading-edge, secure desktop-as-a-service tailored for Japanese organizations. This partnership helps us support customers’ most demanding needs for privacy, value, and modernization on a sovereign cloud.”
— Kazushi Koga, corporate executive officer, SEVP, Head of Platform, Fujitsu Limited
Key factors for this successful DaaS implementation are:
- OCI Secure Desktops’ comprehensive auditing features, which provide detailed oversight and support compliance by logging all administrative actions and user connections.
- The service’s support for flexible, non-persistent desktops allows Fujitsu to offer temporary desktops that protect sensitive session data and optimize resource usage.
- Enhanced manageability through simplified image management enables administrators to deploy software patches and updates quickly, maintaining high levels of protection and productivity.
This successful collaboration between Oracle and Fujitsu reflects deep alignment on vision, values, and execution. Throughout the journey from initial planning to rollout and support both teams have worked together to address rigorous requirements and deliver a truly differentiated solution.
Fujitsu’s adoption of OCI Secure Desktops marks a significant leap forward for customers across Japan. By leveraging the Oracle Alloy sovereign cloud platform, Fujitsu provides enterprises and public sector clients with strong data protection measures, enabling trust and broader digital transformation. Against a backdrop of market uncertainty in the virtual desktop infrastructure space, Fujitsu now stands apart by empowering customers to migrate confidently to the cloud knowing their data is secure and their IT budgets remain under control.
