1. A method for providing cloud-based application access to one or more computing resources disposed in association with a client terminal, the method comprising:

  • executing a user agent client application on the client terminal, wherein the user agent client application is adapted to provide control of at least one computing resource of the one or more computing resources;

    establishing an open channel communication link between the user agent client application and the cloud-based application;

    invoking functionality of the cloud-based application using a cloud client application hosted on a user client interface application configured to inhibit interaction with and control of the at least one computing resource by the cloud-based application; and

    arbitrating access to a selected computing resource of the at least one computing resource for the cloud-based application by the user agent client application based at least in part on information transmitted via the open channel communication link, wherein the arbitrating bypasses the user client interface application by;

    transmitting, by the cloud client application, information associated with the invoked functionality to the cloud-based application, andreceiving, by the user agent client application, commands from the cloud-based application that control access to the selected computing resource via the open channel communication link.
