A VISIT panel discussion with Joseph Reger, Dieter Herzog and Richard Schlauri

Fujitsu Siemens Computers (FSC) unveiled a whole host of products, services and solutions that fall under its Dynamic Infrastructures offering at the VISIT 2008 exhibition in Augsberg, Germany.

Dynamic Infrastructures focuses on powerful, flexible IT for core tasks and implementing innovation. The portfolio includes modules on: infrastructure product and services; infrastructure solutions and services; managed infrastructures; and infrastructure as a service.

“The main issue for datacenter customers is deciding what services, applications and resources they need now, and what happens when their needs change,” said Martin Banks, practice leader of datacentre and mainframe at analyst firm Bloor Research. “To meet ever-changing market dynamics, users now need great operational flexibility. With the introduction of Dynamic Infrastructure, Fujitsu Siemens Computers demonstrates that it understands the need for environments that can withstand being constantly under pressure to change, and underlines its ability to manage the changes while keeping business working reliably and effectively.”

FSC revealed the Stylistic ST6012 tablet PC, which comes under the infrastructure products and services module. It is aimed at users that need to work in a highly flexible manner. Similarly, FSC introduced the new, lightweight mobile Lifebook P8020, as well as the Celsius W370 entry-level workstation.

Under the infrastructure solutions and services umbrella FSC released a tablet PC-based solution for the healthcare market called Esprimo MA, as well as Futro S450; a mid-range thin client designed to enable virtual workplace offerings.
