Fujitsu Computing as a Service (CaaS) : Fujitsu Global

Fujitsu Uvance, a brand to respond to social issues, and
CaaS, a cloud services portfolio to support the brand

Fujitsu provides a new service portfolio “Fujitsu Computing as a Service (CaaS)” to enable a combination of advanced computing technologies like Digital Annealer, AI, and software applications with Fujitsu's accumulated knowledge.

Fujitsu CaaS accelerates the growth of Fujitsu’s Uvance brand to realize a sustainable world and creates new value with worldwide customers by easily accessing the latest technologies.

Service concept

Increasingly complex social issues

With the world rapidly changing due to digitalization, quick decisions must be made in light of ever-increasing data and increasingly complex risk factors.

Computing technologies are also diversifying, as seen in the research and development of new technologies such as quantum computing.

Computing as a Service "CaaS" is a group of services that allows customers to utilize diversified technologies safely, securely, and easily, and to always enjoy the value of advanced technologies to the maximum extent possible.

Fujitsu CaaS solves issues with advanced computing, making it possible to:

Lead to completely new discoveries and ideas.
Dramatically improve and optimize complicated business operations.
Realize security and flexibility at the same time.

How can CaaS be used?

Drug Discovery/Materials Informatics

Fujitsu CaaS provides the ability to predict the structure of middle-molecule drug candidate compounds and molecular crystals, leading to the acceleration of new material and new drug development, such as COVID-19 cures.
Logistics

Fujitsu CaaS creates an optimal delivery plan in a short period of time from a number of channel combinations consisting of suppliers, transit warehouses, and retailers, and drastically optimizes distribution costs including the number of trucks, truck loading efficiency, and total mileage.
Data security

Our CaaS ensures data security and authentication in various situations among companies and individuals by exchanging data as electronic credentials and managing and utilizing these trails as tamper-proof evidence.

Accelerating the Development of New Drugs by Accurately Calculating the Stable Structure of Middle-Molecule

Challenges

Simulation technology is also difficult to apply to middle-molecule drug discovery. The reason for this is the unimaginable large numbers of combinations that have to be computed.

Solution

High accuracy results were achieved in a short period of only 12 hours, with a deviation of only 0.73 angstrom* from actual experiment results. ※ angstrom = 0.1 nanometer

Fujitsu has dramatically improved the search process for candidate compounds through collaboration with PeptiDream, which has a unique technology in the field of middle-molecule drug discovery.

What services does CaaS provide?

“CaaS” is a service that aims to create new value for customers by providing Fujitsu‘s advanced computing technology on the cloud.

CaaS HPC

CaaS HPC provides opitimazied computing environments for HPC applications. Cloud service HPC equipped with PRIMEHPC FX1000 which is based on the technology used in the supercomputer Fugaku, high-performance CPUs from Intel, and GPUs from NVIDIA, can be used as an environment for developing and running simulations and AI applications.
CaaS Digital Annealer

Via CaaS Digital Annealer, users will be able to use Fujitsu’s Quantum-Inspired Digital Annealer that solves complex combinatorial optimization problems at speeds not possible with current conventional computing technologies.
CaaS Digital Annealer will offer quick and accurate solutions to combinatorial optimization problems from a wide area including distribution and production planning, drug development, and the search of new materials.
CaaS Data e-TRUST

With trust technology, Fujitsu CaaS provides advanced information security to ensure data sharing security and data authenticity between different systems and services. In addition, it offers other services, such as the unique functions of electronic credentials, distributed data linkage, and hash chain ledgers, enabling authentication for people and companies in digital transactions, as well as safe, secure, and free data exchange and utilization.
