Cloud Computing should be embraced by the channel, not feared

Despite some resellers viewing the cloud as a threat to their traditional business model, many will actually benefit from the technology as a result of their close relationship with their customers, according to analyst house IDC.

In their role as a trusted advisor to end users, resellers are the ones that will supply the support, advice and practical implementation of each customer’s separate cloud strategy.
