When Cloud Computing first came on the scene, channel partners steered their clients to migrate business applications. Today, deploying cloud-based apps such as Office 365, Sales force, service now, Drop box, and Workday has become the de facto standard for cloud computing. Yet, simply focusing on business apps as the primary cloud play is no longer a differentiator for channel partners. As the cloud model of delivering IT services continues to gain traction, channel partners seeking growth can turn to new opportunities, namely cloud networking, managed clouds, cloud monitoring, and cloud security. According to IT market research firm IDC, half of all IT spending will be cloud-based by 2018, and by 2020 spending on cloud services, including related hardware and software as well as services for implementing and managing cloud services, will surpass $500 billion. That's a big market for the channel. This paper deals with the technology, opportunities for interaction designers, concerns and misconceptions about the cloud and concluded with cloud-based applications is that they are continuously, ubiquitously available to users and their collaborators. The cloud facilitates our breaking out of the confines of a single-workstation, single-user paradigm.
