Fujitsu Limited, its subsidiary 1Finity Inc., and Arrcus Inc., a hyperscale networking software leader, have officially signed a strategic partnership agreement to accelerate next-generation network infrastructure for the AI era. This collaboration aims to deliver cutting-edge network solutions to Japan and extend their reach to global markets.
As artificial intelligence rapidly integrates into industries and everyday services, the amount of AI-driven data traffic continues to surge. As a result, there’s now a growing need for smarter, more advanced network infrastructure systems that can effortlessly connect data centers, cloud platforms, next-gen 5G and 6G networks, and edge environments all in one seamless flow.

Arrcus has established itself as an innovator in Ethernet-based routing and switching platforms. The company provides highly scalable networking software that caters to both enterprise customers and network operators. Its Network Operating System (OS) stands out by unifying data center clusters from the edge to multi-cloud environments. This flexibility enables faster deployment and centralized management, all without the need for dedicated hardware. Instead, it runs effectively on cost-efficient “white box” components, which can be configured with optimal silicon chips. Customers deploying this technology have reported more than a 40% reduction in total cost of ownership (TCO) across multiple scenarios.
Through this agreement, 1Finity will become the exclusive provider of Arrcus’s full range of solutions and will work closely with Arrcus to co-develop go-to-market strategies aimed at global expansion starting with a strong focus on Japan. The two companies also plan to team up with global partners outside the Fujitsu Group to broaden their reach even further. Together, they will build comprehensive solutions covering the entire lifecycle from network design to managed services for maintenance and operations ensuring maximum value for customers.
