When Japan’s Mitsuba Corporation needed to ensure that its global communications infrastructure would support the company’s ongoing expansion, it turned to Verizon for help. With Verizon’s global Wide Area Network Acceleration solution, Mitsuba was able to reduce its network traffic by more than 49 per cent, resulting in significant cost savings and a near doubling of bandwidth capacity over the company’s existing networks.
Mitsuba needed to find a technology partner with the global reach to support its operations not only in existing markets, but also in those emerging economies it had targeted for growth. In particular, the ever-increasing volume of data flowing among Mitsuba’s subsidiaries meant that the company needed a technology partner with wide-area-network optimization capabilities that could integrate with Cisco’s Wide Area Application Services. This would enable the organization to easily collaborate and share information and ideas to drive innovation
Mitsuba’s operating officer of information systems, Shigeo Sekita, said, “Our business is powered by our network 24/7, and as we move into new markets, network reliability and flexibility are becoming increasingly important. It was important for us to identify a single provider to manage our network across all our markets to enable us to focus our internal efforts on business application development rather than day-to-day network support. The Verizon team had the global presence, experience – and, most importantly, the integration expertise – we were looking for.”
The Verizon solution for Mitsuba included global network design and implementation, supported with proactive network monitoring and performance reporting in accordance with Verizon’s stringent service-level agreements. In addition, the analytics report provided to Mitsuba enabled its IT executives to monitor network flow and keep a tight lid on costs.
