Hi,

Currently the cloud is just a deployment - I'm assuming you're considering IAAS or PAAS? You would need to install Cognos on your chosen cloud platform just like any normal install, then configure it to communicate with your chosen authentication provider and data sources - just as you would if it was on-premise. I haven't seen any SAAS solutions from IBM for BI yet - where they provision you a Cognos instance in the cloud - but I'm guessing it's only a metter of time...

Cheers!
