Microsoft Japan Co., Ltd Allies with IT Firms to Offer Office 365 Cloud Computing Service
Dec 3 12

Microsoft Japan Co. Ltd. has joined hands with Fujitsu Ltd., NEC and three other information-technology firms to offer its Office 365 cloud computing service. The partners, which also include Hitachi Systems Ltd., Hewlett-Packard Japan Ltd. and NTT Communications Corp., began providing the service under licensing agreements with Microsoft late last month. The company had been using overseas data centers to offer email, web conferencing and in-house data-sharing programs to domestic customers. But clients that value security and want their data stored in Japan - particularly financial institutions and government agencies - were reluctant to sign up. Under the arrangements, the five firms will market the service as their own and Microsoft Japan will receive licensing fees.
