Fujitsu's FlexFrame for Oracle Now Supports Oracle VM Virtual Environments

SUNNYVALE, CA, Jul 30 (MARKET WIRE) --
Fujitsu today announces the new version of FlexFrame(R) for Oracle,
enabling enterprise customers to deploy Dynamic Infrastructures using
Oracle technology. The new version of FlexFrame for Oracle integrates
Oracle VM to provide high availability across both physical and virtual
servers.

The new FlexFrame for Oracle extends the solution's availability to
customers who need to start small and grow. Greater flexibility is built
in as FlexFrame for Oracle is designed to scale dynamically with
customers' Oracle installations, always providing the maximum levels of
high availability. Also new in FlexFrame for Oracle are value-add
features such as application awareness and priority management.

FlexFrame for Oracle is an efficient solution providing a pre-integrated
IT infrastructure that dynamically assigns server resources to Oracle
services based on Oracle database, Oracle application servers or any
other Oracle application. All Oracle software, plus the operating system,
reside on a central storage system and can be started on any server in
the FlexFrame pool within minutes. FlexFrame for Oracle drastically
reduces installation and maintenance efforts and automatically manages
quality of service. Should a server fail, the Oracle service is
automatically restarted on another server.

By integrating Oracle VM, virtualization technology that is fully
certified to run Oracle products, FlexFrame for Oracle provides better
resource utilization and higher granularity. Organizations can integrate
Oracle databases running with Oracle applications as well as non-Oracle
applications such as SAP into FlexFrame for Oracle scenarios. In addition,
customers have the flexibility to choose to implement a software or
hardware disaster recovery architecture that works best for their specific
project. FlexFrame for Oracle can reduce the total cost of ownership by up
to 60 percent. Furthermore, compared to the energy costs of their
traditional environments, organizations can save up to 70 percent on
energy with the FlexFrame for Oracle environment.

The new version of FlexFrame for Oracle includes a number of value-add
features. Application awareness provides monitoring capabilities for
Oracle services and a live check with configurable restart/reboot
options. In addition, it integrates into standard Data Center management
processes and connects to SNMP network management systems. The new
version also features increased service availability with priority
management that introduces service priorities, failover and displacement
rules.

Fujitsu offers a comprehensive set of integration services to help the
customer plan, implement and introduce FlexFrame for Oracle. As part of
the maintenance service, Fujitsu offers a Solution Contract, which means
that the customer has one single contact point for all problems within the
solution. An optional ROI service shows and verifies the savings that
customers receive from the solution.

Later in 2009, Fujitsu will introduce further enhancements to FlexFrame
for Oracle, which will provide native support for the newest server and
storage technologies. In addition, Virtual IO Manager (VIOM) allows
customers to manage multiple storage systems in LAN and SAN environments
and reduces complexity by introducing virtualized physical network
addresses, which makes it easier to reallocate resources between virtual
machines.

Rolf Strotmann, Vice President Enterprise Servers and Software at Fujitsu
Technology Solutions, says: "The introduction of the new FlexFrame for
Oracle release is the result of more than 15 years of collaboration
between Fujitsu and Oracle. This solution consolidates Oracle
environments to provide one infrastructure for all Oracle services. Now
by integrating with Oracle VM, we can ensure high availability for both
real and virtual servers."

Monica Kumar, Senior Director, Linux, Virtualization and Open Source
Product Marketing from Oracle, says: "With the ability to support virtual
environments, Fujitsu's unique FlexFrame for Oracle technology allows
businesses to start small and add new services gradually as they grow. We
are excited to partner with Fujitsu to bring these benefits to our
customers."

FlexFrame for Oracle is available across EMEA and in the U.S. regions.
