Through this partnership, NTT Com will launch multi-tenant cloud platforms for mission-critical systems within large enterprises in Japan this spring. The partners will also explore opportunities to launch their offering in global markets.
This joint initiatives will combine NTT Com’s world-class data centers, network and existing cloud platforms; Virtustream’s innovative cloud platform for mission-critical applications; and storage and Converged Infrastructure platform by Dell EMC (Japan).

NTT Com currently supports customers migrating their mission-critical applications from their existing environments to bare metal server as a part of its Enterprise Cloud offering. This new partnership will enable NTT Com’s Enterprise Cloud to meet broader customer demands through the addition of a multi-tenant cloud platform for large-scale SAP systems.

Mission-critical applications for large enterprises in Japan today are typically run in on-premises or private-cloud environments to ensure stability and high processing capabilities at all times. However, with enterprises demanding faster system scalability and more flexible pricing for greater competitiveness, there is growing interest in shifting mission-critical applications to a multi-tenant cloud platform’s solutions.
