What Constitutes A Cloud Hosting Reseller Program A cloud hosting reseller program is offered by an IT service provider that buys cloud computing products and services from a cloud service provider and then resells them to its clients. Such a reseller can deal in all varieties of cloud computing services like infrastructure, software, storage, and more. The difference between the price at which these services are bought and sold constitutes the profit for a cloud hosting reseller program. However, it need not be a simple transaction only. If the reseller of cloud computing services is working under a white-label reselling program, it has the option to rebrand and resell those cloud products and services as its own. Again, a cloud hosting reseller programcan act as a value-added reseller (VAR) where additional services are offered as a value-add program and function. An example will explain this point. Suppose a cloud computing reseller combines their photo editing software with a cloud provider’s storage to increase the value of any software product or others, it is following the functions of a VAR. A cloud hosting reseller program typically takes the following forms.
Software as a service (SaaS) where customers are offered turnkey software apps that are accessed through a web browser or application program interface. • Infrastructure as a service that provides customers with access to APIs and other resources. It enables the formation of a virtual data center that can support workloads across multi-cloud environments. • Platform as a service where the capabilities of IaaS and SaaS are extended by giving development teams access to libraries and other software tools supporting the building and hosting of native cloud applications.
How to choose the right cloud hostingreseller program • One of the critical benefits offered by a cloud hosting reseller program is redundancy to make sure of minimal downtime and faster recovery times in the event of a disruption. While costefficiencies play a big role in making a decision it is also important to look at other factors when choosing the right provider. • Security and compliance: A top-of-the-line cloud hosting provider will be able to prove how it enforces security and privacy policies and agree to undergo an independent evaluation. • Customization: Checkhow easily the cloud service provider customizes services to meet client requirements. • Data sovereignty: The cloud hosting reseller program should specifically inform where customer data is stored and how they support compliance regulations. • Structure of the storage: The reseller must be transparent about how their data architecture will be able to support customer data in transit and at rest throughout the data's lifecycle. • Manageability: The cloud hosting reseller program must be clear about which tools are compatible with its services, the types of workflows that it can automate, and whether the provider's services can be integrated with the services of other providers. • Do not forget to check the type of customer support available at each service level.
