HP To Adopt Cloud Computing In Preferred Partner Program

HP is set to introduce a cloud computing into their Preferred Partner Program from next ‎fiscal year.‎

HP has come to notice that many of HP’s partners were exiting from the traditional ‎reselling practices and sealing their relationship with the company, in an attempt to adopt ‎changing trends in the industry.‎
Earlier a partner used to buy from their distributing outlets and resell their products – ‎presently they were buying their product but using it to resell the same as a service. ‎

These subtle changes were becoming more common models among their partners and the ‎company was looking forward to accommodate this change in strategy in a more formal ‎and standardized manner so that the partners who are offering their services hosting on ‎HP technology would gain to benefit from better account management, rebates etc.‎
