Before migrating any commercial software or enterprise applications to the cloud – be that private (including co-location services) or public cloud – it is vitally important to fully assess the impact this could have on licensing compliance and to understand the technical and commercial consequences of moving the asset to the cloud.
Should the software be moved to the cloud? Are there any optimisation opportunities that could be taken advantage of? What are your current software entitlements? Importantly, are there additional licensing or cost implications of the proposed migration that need to be factored in at the planning phase?

Do you know the licensing implications of migrating to the cloud?
This service is ideal for organisations considering migrating software from on-premises to cloud environments, whether that be to AWS, Azure, Google, private, public cloud or a hybrid. We can advise on which assets should or shouldn’t be migrated to a cloud environment.
Additionally, we can model various migration scenarios to assess their impact on cost and risk for your current software licensing estate. By considering run costs, licensing costs, licensing entitlements and complex cloud technologies, we aim to provide the optimal cost and sustainability position.
We specialise in software asset management (SAM) and license compliance for hundreds of enterprise vendors including Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, IBM, Broadcom VMware, Salesforce, Adobe, and many more - helping you stay compliant, optimised, and in control.
License Conscious Architecture
Do you understand the licensing implications of proposed change?
Synyega work with various teams within your business - including Enterprise/Infrastructure Architecture, Commercial, ITAM, and Finance - to advise on how to best optimise an architectural approach with a licensing input. This will not only satisfy business demand and support modernisation, but also any architectural and financial constraints are identified and technical debt reduced. Synyega will work on a ‘project’ basis to drive iterations of a low level design with licensing guidance to avoid costly licensing challenges.
By taking our 'shift left' approach your software architecture can confirm compliant optimised designs and architecture earlier in the process, meaning there is less disruption if corrections are needed in the cloud architecture and workloads and you ensure cost optimisation. We specialise in software asset management (SAM) and license compliance for hundreds of enterprise vendors including Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, IBM, Broadcom VMware, Salesforce, Adobe, and many more - helping you stay compliant, optimised, and in control.
