Case Study: Mitsui Knowledge Industry (MKI) launches Global ITO Service to support Japanese companies' expansion in Asia with A10 Networks Thunder ADC

MKI Verification Lab Deploys Thunder ADC to Support Japanese Companies’ Expansion in Asia

Mitsui Knowledge Industry (MKI), a Japanese ICT service provider, launched its "Global ITO Service" and opened a verification laboratory in Ho Chi Minh City to support Japanese companies expanding in Asia. The lab needed to validate diverse international network environments while meeting the latest standards—supporting 10GbE, IPv6 and SDN—while maintaining high stability and performance.

MKI deployed A10 Networks Thunder 3030S and Thunder 930 ADCs, leveraging ACOS performance, SDN compatibility and advanced security features, with A10 supplying hands‑on training and implementation support in Vietnam. The result was a successful Global ITO Service launch: a high‑performance, standards‑compliant verification lab that validates complex environments (IPv4/IPv6, GSLB, Cisco ACI, Microsoft UC), with local engineers certified and ready to support customer deployments across Asia.
