Fujitsu and Microsoft highlight sustainable AI and cloud solutions

At Fujitsu, we are focused on offering continued value for our customers while also improving their long-term sustainability and resilience. We are achieving this by creating innovative AI and cloud solutions that unlock digital transformations and help businesses achieve their growth and efficiency goals.

For our Uvance business and new AI platform, known by the code name “Kozuchi,” we are collaborating with Microsoft to enable customers to modernize and improve their daily operations. At the most recent Microsoft Ignite gathering, we highlighted how we are harnessing AI, the cloud, and other advanced technologies to improve supply chain management, anticipate and avoid potential production challenges, and enable new revenue streams for companies.

This partnership with Microsoft also allows us to offer new hybrid IT services and infrastructure that provide automation and enhanced customer services across a range of industries. Products and services benefiting from our collaboration are already being utilized to analyze data and produce better outcomes while providing multi-layer security to mitigate risks.

Using digital solutions to manage supply chains

One of the solutions we are focused on is helping companies create digital supply chains that are more resilient in the face of today’s multiple challenges. The COVID pandemic showed how operational disruptions and shifting consumer demands can create ripples in worldwide supply chains that can last for months. Natural disasters, international disputes, and other issues can create similar slowdowns in this era of just-in-time inventory management. These risks and ever-changing consumer behavior make visibility and flexibility in supply chains more critical than ever. Our Uvance business platform and generative AI can connect with and manage data from partners across your supply chain.

Connectivity and traceability tools allow you to track assets, improve cooperation with suppliers and customers, and solve shortages in real time. By identifying bottlenecks and recommending options, as well as creating more accurate demand forecasts, our supply chain solution can ensure more timely deliveries. Additionally, digital supply chain networks can assist in developing strategies to cut waste and reduce your supply chain’s climate footprint to meet sustainability targets and regulatory policies. Our solutions can help efficiently track and report that data accurately as well.

Accelerating time from AI deployment to value

Creating business value often starts with the capability to collect, analyze, and act on valuable data. Our AI platform, currently known as “Kozuchi” can accomplish that, whether it is being used to manage supply chains, monitor production lines, or understand consumer browsing and buying patterns. Using Microsoft Azure, our AI platform consists of two major elements:

AI Innovation Components, which packages AI technology to solve business challenges on a use-case basis. The components include advanced AI features, models, and tools that have been validated by experts in industries such as manufacturing, retail, and government services.

This platform is designed to make it easier for organizations to get started with AI solutions faster, giving them a clear pathway to move from proof to concept to deploying AI and gaining a competitive edge from the technology. Additionally, it gives users the option of interacting with AI through a variety of inputs.

Creating hybrid IT and cloud infrastructures

Empowering advanced connectivity, generative AI, and multi-cloud-based environments requires new digital infrastructure. Our Uvance Hybrid IT Managed Services combines automated services with high scalability and security.

Backed by cloud management expertise and optimization, we can enable enterprise-wide digital transformation that powers operational excellence and drives sustainability. Our hybrid IT services can optimize your organization’s IT infrastructure for maximum flexibility while handling emerging technologies such as high-performance computing and generative AI.

Our in-depth understanding of hybrid IT’s complexity lets us help you leverage the benefits of your technology investment while avoiding potential pitfalls. By utilizing a Zero Trust model and multi-layer security tools, we can build a dispersed but secure perimeter that protects an organization’s users from cybersecurity threats while also allowing them to access what they need to access.
