Fujitsu has teamed up with salesforce.com to provide consulting services for Salesforce’s cloud applications as well as application development and integration services on salesforce.com’s Force.com platform.
Referring to the company as an enterprise cloud
computing company rather than SaaS provider, Salesforce senior VP,
worldwide alliances, Bobby Napiltonia says Fujitsu’s cloud computing
implementation and management services will address the needs of the
Salesforce enterprise customers throughout Australia and New Zealand as
cloud computing gains momentum.
According to Napiltonia, the relationship with Fujitsu further
strengthens the company’s partner ecosystem in Asia Pacific and “helps
salesforce.com to deliver customer success across the region."
Napiltonia says the partnership with Fujitsu is designed to enable
customers in a wide variety of industries, including manufacturing,
distribution, and finance, to “dramatically reduce IT costs and
increase business competitiveness, which are the key concerns for
Australian CIOs in today’s market.”
“In this partnership, Fujitsu will provide application development,
systems integration and consulting expertise built to support
Saleforce’s market leading CRM cloud applications and Force.com
platform. Together, the companies will address customer requirements
with easy to customise, quickly deployable, and cost effective cloud
computing solutions.”
Fujitsu’s group executive director for Australia and New Zealand, Dan
O’Hara, said “from a local perspective, this is great news for Fujitsu,
as it strengthens our relationship with salesforce.com both locally and
internationally.”
O’Hara claimed that demand had increased significantly for cloud
computing solutions within the Australian market, “with more businesses
needing to minimise upfront deployment costs and eliminate the need for
customers to maintain their own hardware and software, enabling system
resources to be flexibly expanded to meet a business’ needs.”
According to O’Hara, many organisations are attracted to the concept of
cloud computing delivery due to its rapid implementation, agility,
scalability and other attributes.
