In doing so, Fujitsu is well on its way to building one of the broadest portfolios of IaaS, PaaS, SaaS and Cloud Integration Services.

Cameron McNaught. Executive Vice President, Solutions, Global Delivery, Fujitsu (photo), said : “Fujitsu has a vision of a Human Centric Intelligent Society, one where social and business innovation is driven by the intelligent use of information and communication technologies. We see cloud as the natural platform for delivering these new types of applications, which is reflected in both the increase we are seeing in cloud adoption and how it is becoming a standard part of IT service delivery models for many CIOs today. We also recognize that no single cloud service provider can meet all customer needs, so we are continuing to invest in our cloud integration services.”
