Fujitsu Australia has opened a new 1,000m┬▓ data center in Brisbane, to meet the growing local demand for hosted and managed IT services. The facility is based upon TRIOLE, Fujitsu’s new approach to designing, developing, deploying and managing IT.
“TRIOLE works on the principle that around 80% of an organisation’s IT infrastructure is the same, whatever their business. By standardising that 80% and removing duplication, organisations can expect more robust IT infrastructure, requiring less support and over time, reduced cost,” chief executive Rod Vawdrey said. “By industrializing IT services and solutions, organizations can redirect IT investment to areas of the business where they can build greater differentiation - such as enhancing their customers’ experience.
The purpose-built data center facility combines a high level of redundancy and fail-over capability with the capacity to cater for rapid growth in demand. It complements Fujitsu’s existing data center services, which provide service level management 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for customers throughout Australia.
“The potential for growth in Queensland, which has been bolstered by the Queensland government’s smart state’ strategy, was a contributing factor in our decision to extend our data center capabilities in the state,” Vawdrey added.
