The program provides the channel with the tools to accelerate cloud adoption, exploit its revenue potential and improve the level of competitiveness
Arrow Electronics, a global technology provider, introduced the innovative Cloud Amplification Program (CAP) designed to help channel partners accelerate business in the cloud. The program offers comprehensive consultancy to assess a retailer's current cloud maturity and suggests personalized recommendations to support their cloud growth process.
The program is vendor-neutral and allows resellers to adopt cloud solutions from multiple providers, enabling them to meet the needs of disparate end-user environments.
CAP consolidates multiple cloud analyzes into a single, in-depth assessment, providing guidance on cloud readiness and future opportunities that align with channel partner goals. By focusing on public cloud and hybrid solutions, CAP enables resellers to expand their cloud capabilities, differentiate themselves from the competition, and drive new revenue.
"The cloud market continues to expand at an incredible rate. With global public cloud spending projected to exceed $1 trillion by 2027 and cloud computing expected to become an enterprise priority by 2028*. Arrow's CAP helps ensure channel partners have the tools and guidance they need to capitalize," said Marco D'Angelo, director of cloud at Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions in EMEA.
The Cloud Amplification Program is a unique framework that combines a reseller's specific needs with Arrow's strong industry knowledge. This targeted approach results in a customized plan designed to accelerate a retailer's cloud operations, drive long-term growth and unlock new revenue streams. Resellers who engage in this program will enhance their cloud skills and capabilities, equipping themselves with the tools needed to meet the evolving needs of the cloud market and their customers.
The program follows a five-phase path, which begins with an initial skills assessment, followed by the creation of user personas, the alignment of objectives and an individual implementation plan. Arrow provides ongoing support throughout the process, tracking progress and helping resellers stay true to their cloud goals.
Program benefits include:
- Free Cloud Skills Assessment: A detailed analysis of a reseller's cloud maturity level.
- Tailor-made products: Personalized resources and guidance to update resellers on market-leading cloud solutions.
- Ongoing Support: Arrow's dedicated cloud team provides ongoing commitment to support resellers' long-term cloud goals.
The program is accessible via this web page and through Arrow's cloud deployment and management platform, ArrowSphere Cloud.
