Achieving world-class AI inference performance through Japan-developed 2nm 3D-stacked CPU and server integrated, developed, and manufactured in Japan
KAWASAKI, Japan, Sept. 14, 2026 — Fujitsu Limited today announced that it will begin global sales of its next-generation CPU, FUJITSU-MONAKA, designed and developed in Japan, starting November 2026. This will include sales of the processor as a standalone product to cloud and data center operators and server vendors. Additionally, the company will launch the made-in-Japan Fujitsu MONAKA Server equipped with the FUJITSU-MONAKA CPU, offering high reliability and power efficiency as a sovereign AI infrastructure. Fujitsu MONAKA Server will be made broadly available from November 2026 to data center operators, enterprises, and the academic and HPC sectors in Japan and Europe, as well as to the defense sector, contributing to national security.
The FUJITSU-MONAKA CPU integrates Fujitsu’s extensive expertise in processor and server development, achieving world-class computational performance and data supply capabilities with a maximum operating frequency of 3.8GHz and memory transfer speed of 8800MT/s. It delivers twice the AI inference throughput and superior power efficiency compared to other CPUs, effectively halving the number of servers and power consumption required for equivalent processing loads.
Fujitsu MONAKA Server, powered by the FUJITSU-MONAKA CPU, enhances sovereign capabilities through domestic manufacturing, contributing to traceability and supply chain transparency. Furthermore, at a time when power and installation space are significant challenges for AI infrastructure expansion, this CPU server alone can build an AI inference platform. Its space-saving and power-efficient design allows for deployment in air-cooled data centers, significantly increasing customers’ capacity for AI infrastructure expansion. Fujitsu MONAKA Server also supports future scalability through resource pooling technology and reduces cooling energy consumption with Fujitsu’s long-cultivated cooling technologies.
Fujitsu is committed to supporting customers’ autonomy and accountability by providing a sustainable sovereign AI infrastructure with high operability.
Moreover, with Fujitsu MONAKA Server at its core, Fujitsu will deploy a vertically integrated sovereign AI model that combines its proprietary AI technologies, such as the AI platform Fujitsu Kozuchi and enterprise-grade generative AI Takane, with industry-specific models. This will provide a sovereign AI platform with enhanced measures for traceability, security, and operational autonomy transparency, creating an environment where customers can utilize AI with peace of mind and confidence.
In recent years, the expansion of generative AI has led to a shortage of computing resources and a rapid increase in power demand, posing new management and societal challenges. This has heightened the importance of low-power-consumption CPUs that can deliver higher processing performance with limited power. Simultaneously, there is a growing need for on-premises AI infrastructure that allows companies to manage and operate confidential information securely in-house, requiring AI infrastructure that can operate even in locations without specialized infrastructure like water cooling. Furthermore, with increasing geopolitical risks, interest in platforms that ensure supply chain reliability and transparency is also growing.
Fujitsu plans to provide FUJITSU-MONAKA to cloud and data center operators and server vendors starting in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026, with global availability including the US and APAC regions.
Fujitsu MONAKA Server will be offered to select customers in the financial, telecommunications, and manufacturing sectors starting in the second half of fiscal year 2026 to expand use cases. Shipments will then commence sequentially from April 2027, in Japan and Europe. Additionally, Fujitsu plans to add high-density servers for AI data centers and rack-scale servers that enable autonomous operation, such as automated maintenance using robots, to its product lineup.
Fujitsu will continue to contribute to customers’ DX promotion and value creation by providing solutions that integrate generative AI, computing, and data utilization technologies, aiming to realize a safe and secure AI society.
