Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation is the integrated system solution for scenarios of use "infrastructure as service" (Infrastructure-as-a-Service, IaaS) or virtual desktops. As a part of a giperkonvergenty system hardware and the software.
2017: The first solution for software-defined data processing centers for environments of VMware
On September 7, 2017 Fujitsu announced release of the first solution for completely software-defined data processing centers for environments of VMware. PRIMEFLEX for VMware Cloud Foundation accelerates creation of software-defined DPCs (Software-Defined Data Center, SDDC) for creation of flexible and adaptive computing infrastructure.
The integrated PRIMEFLEX system is developed for VMware Cloud Foundation of Fujitsu company in order that the companies could purchase, unroll and service large-scale SDDC most easily. Customers can select either completely ready integrated system, or reference architecture of Fujitsu. IaaS cloud in only several hours allows to unroll the ready systems, using the usual software of VMware. The reference architecture uses previously selected and certified vSAN Ready Nodes nodes for VMware Cloud Foundation. Using these two solutions of the PRIMEFLEX system give even more opportunities for creation of the scalable, effective and dynamic local software-defined infrastructures on the basis of VMware Cloud Foundation adapted according to requirements of the specific company.
The basic principle of PRIMEFLEX for VMware Cloud Foundation is in providing to customers previously configured solution which includes all SDDC, necessary for creation of hyper convergent infrastructures. Innovation of a product line of PRIMEFLEX of Fujitsu company will be ideal for the companies and service providers who need quick entry in operation, simple maintenance and low total cost of ownership. The solution integrates in itself the high-performance server platform of Fujitsu company and switches of Cisco and QCT company, supports functions of calculation and storage and the softwares network functions of VMware and also function of the integrated management of physical and virtual resources.
2016: Start of service
On October 21, 2016 Fujitsu announced start of Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation IaaS-service.
Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation is the ready-made solution for SDDC.
Among functionality of the corporate level there is a certified hardware of Fujitsu and VMware Cloud Foundation.
Addition of a line of the integrated Fujitsu Primeflex systems is optimized for cloud infrastructure of VMware and contains the certified Fujitsu Primergy servers and the Brocade VDX switches. Primeflex uses advantages of VMware SDDC Manager – software for automation of the lifecycle of VMware company integrated into VMware Cloud Foundation – to reduce time of setup and operating maintenance due to automation of different working tasks, including monitoring of systems and installation of updates and corrections.
 | IT departments of the companies should react constantly to the changing requirements, providing the highest levels of scalability and dynamism. They gradually began to use technologies of virtualization, and time to implement giperkonvergenty infrastructures, the including software-defined data storage and network solutions came now. For such Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation environments provides the fastest deployment of completely software-defined infrastructure of data processing centers which can be implemented as locally at the customer, and using hybrid cloud services. Uwe Neumeier, the vice president, the head of department according to solutions for DPC in the region of EMEIA of Fujitsu company |  |
The Primergy servers - a basis of the solution Fujitsu Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation. They are created for virtualization and optimized for VMware.
| | Projects of deployment of infrastructure of data processing centers become harder and harder therefore it is very difficult to trace all elements. The Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation system of Fujitsu company creates the high-performance hardware platform optimized for the virtualized environments. John Gilmartin, the vice president and the CEO of division of the integrated systems of VMware company | |
Brocade expands network capabilities of Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX using family of the productive Brocade VDX switches with low delay level. By means of the Brocade switches, VMware SDDC Manager integrates computing, network resources and resources for data storage within a single, giperkonvergenty and software-defined system.
Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation provides to customers additional flexibility: from 8 servers, customers can expand complex capacity to 192 servers and 1.8 PB for work support ~ 9.6 thousand virtual machines.
Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation is included into a line of solutions of Fujitsu within cooperation with VMware. As a part of Primeflex vShape product line, the convergent infrastructure solution with an external system of storage of SAN, and Primeflex for VMware Virtual SAN, the giperkonvergenty infrastructure solution which integrates in itself software-defined computing resources and resources for data storage.
The Primeflex for VMware Cloud Foundation systems are available to the order. Delivery is planned for January, 2017.
