[Countermeasures against weak yen] Domestic public cloud
This is Ohara from the technical sales department.
Since early March 2022, the yen has been depreciating rapidly in Japan.
Recently, due to the depreciation of the yen and appreciation of the dollar, which exceeded 140 yen to the dollar, the exchange rate has exceeded the 150 yen level and is likely to remain this way for some time.
(Information as of November 2022)
This situation of weak yen and strong dollar means that companies that use foreign-made cloud services such as AWS and GCP are also affected by exchange rates, resulting in an increase in monthly cloud usage fees.
Beyond also builds, operates, maintains, and monitors domestic cloud servers that are unaffected by exchange rates such as the weak yen and strong dollar. We would like to introduce some of the domestic public cloud services that Beyond handles.
