IBM is the first member of the new Avnet Cloud Marketplace that lets partners in the United States and Canada offer cloud-based services to customers through both consumption- and subscription-based models, and create branded storefronts to offer complete solutions to their customers.
This one-stop shop from Phoenix-based Avnet offers solutions from leading cloud service providers, flexible payment models and a powerful cloud management toolset. Its design is based on Avnet’s expertise gained through its role in deploying more than 900,000 workloads in the cloud in just the past two years across a range of public, private and hybrid cloud environments.
Through this membership, IBM’s cloud offerings will be available through the Avnet Cloud Marketplace to IBM Business Partners, including value-added resellers , independent software vendors, managed service providers, and system integrators in the United States and Canada.
