cloud services reseller

A cloud services reseller is an intermediary who purchases cloud computing services with the intention of reselling them rather than using them.

Generally a cloud service reseller is a systems integrator (SI ) who manages the deployment of multiple cloud services purchased through multiple vendors or a value-added reseller (VAR) who sells, installs, maintains and services a cloud appliance located on the customer's premises.
