Optimisation & Licensing Assessment (OLA)

Before migrating any commercial software or enterprise applications to the cloud, it is vitally important to fully assess potential impacts and to understand the technical and commercial consequences of moving software assets to the AWS cloud, mitigating cost, risk and potential delays.

 

Importantly, are there any additional licensing or cost implications of the proposed migration that need to be considered at the planning or design phase?  Key questions need to be asked; for example, should the software be moved to AWS?  Are there any optimisation opportunities that could be taken advantage of?  This is where Synyega can help.

Do you know all the licensing implications of migrating to the cloud?

This service is ideal for organisations considering migrating software from on-premises to an AWS cloud environment, whether that be private (including Colocation), public,  or hybrid environments. Our advice is completely independent and impartial. We do not resell licensing or cloud services, nor do we offer migration services, so we act in your best interests every time.

Our team of experts can advise on which assets should or shouldn’t be migrated to a cloud environment. We can also model different migration scenarios to assess their impact on cost and risk for your current software licensing estate. By considering run costs, licensing costs, and complex cloud technologies, we aim to provide the optimal cost and sustainability position.

case study: damart aws migration project

Damart wanted to model available options within AWS when migrating infrastructure workloads and databases and to optimise and ensure ongoing cost control in the process.  Synyega's AWS OLA outlined a 56% reduction in Oracle licensing costs and a 50% reduction of AWS infrastructure, leading to significant total cost savings.
